-I am looking for friends. What does that mean--'tame'?- -It is an act too often neglected- said the fox. -It means to establish ties.- -'To establish ties'?- -Just that- said the fox. -To me, you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys. And I have no need of you. And you, on your part, have no need of me. To you, I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world . . .-

-But if you tame me, it will be as if the sun came to shine on my life. I shall know the sound of a step that will be different from all the others. Other steps send me hurrying back underneath the ground. Yours will call me, like music, out of my burrow. And then look: you see the grain-fields down yonder? I do not eat bread. Wheat is of no use to me. The wheat fields have nothing to say to me. And that is sad. But you have hair that is the color of gold. Think how wonderful that will be when you have tamed me! The grain, which is also golden, will bring me back the thought of you. And I shall love to listen to the wind in the wheat . . .-
Oh, we have read that dialogue at school! It is a beautiful dialogue.
And this is a beautiful picture. You've done great job. I like the colours. Good lightning and shading. And the... well, creature, it looks very nice. x) I also like the background, it looks interesting. There is nice mood in this picture.
Gah, that book is AMAZING. I wish I spoke/read French so I could read it in its original language... That part... I thank I cried when I read that part.
Your image's composition is wonderful. I love the depth of it (literally and emotionally/thoughtfully...lol?). I want to hug your mysterious figure, so alone.
