Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Chapter Six: the little prince and the narrator talk about sunsets
"One day," you said to me, "I saw the sunset forty-four times!"
And a little later you added: "You know-- one loves the sunset, when one is so sad..."
"Were you so sad, then?" I asked, "on the day of the forty-four sunsets?"
But the little prince made no reply.
