这时，那些玫瑰花显得十分难堪。
“你们很美，但你们是空虚的。”小王子仍然在对她们说，“没有人能为你们去死。当然，我的那朵玫瑰花，一个普通的过路人以为她和你们一样。可是，她比你们全部加起来更重要，因为她是我浇灌的，因为她是我放在花罩中的。因为她是我用屏风保护起来的，因为她身上的毛虫（除了留下两三只为了变蝴蝶而外）是我除灭的，因为我倾听过她的怨艾和自诩，甚至有时我聆听着她的沉默，因为她是我的玫瑰。”
他又回到了狐狸身边。
“再见了。”小王子说道。
“再见。”狐狸说，“喏，这就是我的秘密。很简单：只有用心才能看得清。重要的东西，用眼睛是看不见的。”
“重要的东西，用眼睛是看不见的。”小王子重复着这句话，以便能把它记在心间。
“正因为你为你的玫瑰花费了时间，这才使你的玫瑰变得如此重要。”
“正因为我为我的玫瑰花费了时间……”小王子又重复着，要使自己记住这些。
“人们已经忘记了这个道理，”狐狸说，“可是，你不应该忘记它。你现在要对你驯服过的一切负责到底。你要对你的玫瑰负责……”
“我要对我的玫瑰负责……”小王子又重复着……
