To be a man is, precisely, to be responsible.
—Wind, Sand, and Stars by Antione de Saint-Exupery
Today is the birthday of the French author Antoine de Saint Exupery. Eldest Daughter reads Le Petit Prince in French. Alas, I can only read in English, or maybe picture books in Spanish. I have intended to read the book I quoted above, Wind, Sand, and Stars for a long time now, but I still haven’t managed to do so. I have about fifty books on my list, and those are only the ones I’ve dared to list. My mind is filled with at least that many more books that I want to read or re-read.
