Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them.

I have lived a great deal among grown-ups. I have seen them intimately, close at hand. And that hasn’t much improved my opinion of them.

Grown-ups love figures. When you tell them that you have made a new friend, they never ask you any questions about essentail matters. They never say to you, “What does his voice sound like? What games does he love best? Does he collect butterflies?” Instead, they demand: “How old is he? How many brothers has he? How much does he weigh? How much money does his father make?” Only from these figures do they think they have learned anything about him.

If you were to say to the grown-ups: “I saw a beautiful house made of rosy brick, with geraniums in the windows and doves on the roof,” they would not be able to get an idea of that house at all. You have have to say to them: “I saw a house that cost $20,000.” Then they would exclaim: “Oh, what a pretty house that is!”

“I thought that I was rich, with a flower that was unique in all the world; and all I had was a common rose. A common rose, and three volcanoes that come up to my knees--and one of them perhaps extinct forever… That doesn’t make me a very great prince…”
And he lay down in the grass and cried.

“To me, you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys. And I have no need of you. And you, on your part, have no need of me. To you, I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world…”

~ The Little Prince by Antione de Saint-Exupery

Holmes: Is it a cap— why's it got two fronts?
Watson: It's a deerstalker. "Frequently seen in the company of bachelor John Watson."
Holmes: How do you stalk a deer with a hat? What are you going to do, throw it? (he tries)
Watson: Confirmed bachelor John Watson.
Holmes: Some sort of death frisbee?
Watson: Okay, this is too much. We need to be more careful.
Holmes: It's got flaps. Ear flaps. It's an ear hat, John! What do you mean, careful?
Watson: I mean, this isn't a deerstalker now. It's a Sherlock Holmes hat.
