English |
" Minister of what ? " |
| lpp_1943.567 |
English |
" Minster of - - of Justice ! " |
| lpp_1943.568 |
English |
" But there is nobody here to judge ! " |
| lpp_1943.569 |

" We do not know that , " the king said to him . |
| lpp_1943.570 |
English |
" I have not yet made a complete tour of my kingdom . |
| lpp_1943.571 |
English |
I am very old . |
| lpp_1943.572 |
English |
There is no room here for a carriage . |
| lpp_1943.573 |
English |
And it tires me to walk . " |
| lpp_1943.574 |
English |
" Oh , but I have looked already ! " said the little prince , turning around to give one more glance to the other side of the planet . |
| lpp_1943.575 |
English |
On that side , as on this , there was nobody at all ... |
| lpp_1943.576 |
English |
" Then you shall judge yourself , " the king answered . |
| lpp_1943.577 |
English |
" that is the most difficult thing of all . |
| lpp_1943.578 |
English |
It is much more difficult to judge oneself than to judge others . |
| lpp_1943.579 |
English |
If you succeed in judging yourself rightly , then you are indeed a man of true wisdom . " |
| lpp_1943.580 |
English |
" Yes , " said the little prince , " but I can judge myself anywhere . |
| lpp_1943.581 |
English |
I do not need to live on this planet . |
| lpp_1943.582 |
English |
" Hum ! |
| lpp_1943.583 |
English |
Hum ! " said the king . |
| lpp_1943.584 |
English |
" I have good reason to believe that somewhere on my planet there is an old rat . |
| lpp_1943.585 |
English |
I hear him at night . |
| lpp_1943.586 |
English |
You can judge this old rat . |
| lpp_1943.587 |
English |
From time to time you will condemn him to death . |
| lpp_1943.588 |
English |
Thus his life will depend on your justice . |
| lpp_1943.589 |
English |
But you will pardon him on each occasion ; for he must be treated thriftily . |
