The Little Prince by Anton de Saint -Exupery Chapter 21 The Little Prince Befriends the Fox
2
It was then that the fox appeared.
3
Good morning, said the fox.
4
Good morning, the little prince responded politely.
5
Although when he turned around, he saw nothing.
6
I am right here, the voice said, under the apple tree.
7
Who are you?
8
asked the little prince and added, You are very pretty to look at.
9
I am a fox, said the fox.
10
Come and play with me, proposed the little prince.
11
I am so unhappy.
12
I cannot play with you, the fox said.
13
I am not tamed.
14
Ah, please excuse me, said the little prince.
15
But after some thought, he added, What does that mean?
16
Tame.
17
You do not live here, said the fox.
18
What is it that you are looking for?
19
I am looking for men, said the little prince.
20
What does that mean?
21
Tame.
22
Men, said the fox.
23
They have guns and they hunt.
24
It is very disturbing.
25
They also raise chickens.
26
These are their only interests.
27
Are you looking for chickens?
28
No, said the little prince.
29
I am looking for friends.
30
What does that mean?
31
Tame.
32
It is an act too often neglected, said the fox.
33
It means to establish ties.
34
To establish ties?
35
Just that, said the fox.
36
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,
37
have no need of me.
38
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.
39
To me, you will be unique in all the world.
40
To you, I shall be unique in all the world.
41
I'm beginning to understand, said the little prince.
42
There is a flower.
43
I think that she has tamed me.
44
It is possible, said the fox.
45
On the earth, one sees all sorts of things.
46
Oh, but this is not on the earth, said the little prince.
47
The fox seemed perplexed and very curious. On another planet?
48
Yes.
49
Are there hunters on this planet?
50
No. No?
51
Ah, that is interesting.
52
Are there chickens?
53
No. Nothing is perfect, sighed the fox.
54
But he came back to his idea.
55
My life is very monotonous, the fox said.
56
I hunt chickens, men hunt me.
57
All the chickens are just alike, and all the men are just alike.
58
And in consequence, I am a little bored.
59
But if you tame me, it'll be as if the sun came to shine on my life.
60
I shall know the sound of a step that'll be different from all the others.
61
Other steps send me hurrying back underneath the ground.
62
Yours will call me like music out of my barrow.
63
And then look, you see the grain fields down yonder?
64
I did not eat bread.
65
Wheat is of no use to me.
66
The wheat fields have nothing to say to me.
67
And that is sad.
68
But you have hair that is the color of gold Think of how wonderful that'll be
69
when you have tamed me The grain, which is also golden, will bring me back the thought of you And I shall love to listen to the wind in the wheat
70
The fox gazed at the little prince for a long time Please, tame me, he said I want to,
71
very much, the little prince replied
72
But I have not much time I have friends to discover
73
and a great many things to understand." One only understands the things that one tames, said the fox.
74
Men have no more time to understand anything.
75
They buy things already made at the shops, but there is no shop anywhere where one can buy friendship, and so men have no friends anymore.
76
If you want a friend, tame me." What must I do to tame you?
77
asked the little prince.
78
You must be very patient, replied the fox.
79
First, you will sit down at a little distance from me, like that, in the grass.
80
I shall look at you out of the corner of my eye, and you will say nothing.
81
Words are the source of misunderstandings, but you will sit - a little closer to me every day.
82
The next day, the little prince came back.
83
It would have been better to come back at the same hour, said the fox.
84
If, for example, you come at four o 'clock in the afternoon, then at three o 'clock I shall begin to be happy.
85
I shall feel happier and happier as the hour advances.
86
At four o 'clock, I shall already be worrying and jumping about.
87
I shall show you how happy I am.
88
But if you come at just any time, I shall never know at what hour my heart is to
89
be ready to greet you One must observe the proper rites What is a rite? asked the little prince
90
Those also are actions too often neglected, said the fox They are what make one day different from the others,
91
one hour from other hours There is a rite,
92
for example, among my hunters Every Thursday they dance with the village girls So Thursday is a wonderful day for me.
93
I can take a walk as far as the vineyards But
94
if the hunters danced at just any time Every day would be like every other day, and I should never have any vacation at all
95
So the little prince tamed the fox and when the hour of his departure grew near Ah,
96
said the fox, I shall cry It is your own fault, said the little prince.
97
I never wished you any sort of harm, but you wanted me to tame you.
98
Yes, that is so, said the fox.
99
But now you are going to cry, said the little prince.
100
Yes, that is so, said the fox.
101
Then it has done you no good at all.
102
It has done me good, said the fox, because of the color of the wheat fields.
103
And then he added, Go and look again at the roses.
104
You will understand now that yours is unique in all the world.
105
And the roses were very much embarrassed.
106
You are beautiful, but you are empty, he went on.
107
One could not die for you.
108
To be sure, an ordinary passerby would think that my rose looked just like you, the rose that belongs to me.
109
But in herself alone, she is more important than all the hundreds of you other roses
110
Because it is she that I have watered Because it is she
111
that I have put under the glass globe Because it is she
112
that I have sheltered behind this screen Because it is for her
113
that I have killed the caterpillars Except the two or three
114
that we saved to become butterflies Because it is she
115
that I have listened to when she grumbled or boasted
116
or even sometimes when she said nothing because she is my rose
117
and he went back to meet the fox
118
goodbye he said goodbye said the fox
119
and now here is my secret a very simple secret it is only with the heart
120
that one can see rightly what is essential is invisible to the eye What is essential is invisible to the eye,
121
the little prince repeated, so that he would be sure to remember.
122
It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important.
123
It is the time I have wasted for my rose, said the little prince, so that he would be sure to remember.
124
Men have forgotten this truth, said the fox, but you must not forget it.
125
You become responsible forever for what you have tamed.
126
You are responsible for your rose.
127
I am responsible for my rose, the little prince repeated, so that he would be sure to remember.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
