"When I first opened 'The Little Prince', what shocked me the most were Shadow's illustrations.
It wasn't because these paintings were masterstrokes of extraordinary skill; if Shadow wanted to, he certainly could. What's precious is that he chose not to —
These paintings helped me understand the tone of 'The Little Prince'.
It's a melancholy fairy tale for adults.
This is an era of fast pace, and it seems like as we grow up, there's less and less time. No longer do we have time to gaze at the beauty of the stars; I remember the seeds I planted in childhood, spending so much time witnessing them bloom and bear fruit.
It turns out we've unwittingly lost our curiosity about the world.
Growing up makes us take everything for granted, forgetting that there's still so much mystery and unknown in the world. Perhaps it's not that our knowledge has expanded so much; it's just that we no longer have the interest or time to linger.
