No man can draw a free breath who does not share with other men a common and disinterested ideal. Life has tought us that love does not consist in gazing at each other but in looking outward together in the same direction. - Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (1900 - 44): Wind, Sand and Stars (Terre des Hommes)
