The Little Prince (29)

　　" The flowers have been growing thorns for millions of years. For millions of yeara the sheep have been eating them just the same. And it is not a matter of consequence to try to understand why the flowers go to so much trouble to grow thorns which are never of any use to them ?
  Is the wafare between the sheep and the flowers not important ? Is this not of more consequence than a fat red-faced gentleman's sums ?
  And I know ー I, myself － one flower which is unique in the world, which grows nowhere but on my planet, but which one little sheep can destroy in a single bite some morning, without even noticing what he is doing ー Oh !
  You think that is not important ! "

  His face turned from white to red as he continued.
