"Hello" said the fox. "Good morning" the little prince responded politely, turned around but saw no one.
"I'm here" the voice said, "under the apple tree .."
"Who are you?" asked the little prince, "You are very pretty .."
"I am a fox," said the fox.
"Come play with me," proposed the little prince, "I am so sad .."
"I can not play with you," said the fox, "I am not tamed."
"Oh, sorry," said the little prince. But after a moment's reflection he added: "What do you mean tame?
" You're not from around here, you "said the fox," What are you looking? "
" I am looking for men "said the little prince." What does it mean tame ?
"Men," the fox said, "They have guns and hunt." "It 's very boring! They also raise chickens. E 'are their only interests. Are you looking for chickens? "
" No "- said the little prince." I am looking for friends. What do you mean tame? "
" It 's an act too often neglected. It means to establish ties. "
" To establish ties? "
" Sure, "said the fox.
" You, so far, for me, you are not that a boy like a hundred thousand kids. And I need you. And you have no need of me. I'm not for just a fox like a hundred thousand foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. You will be unique in the world to me, and I shall be unique to you. "
beginning to understand - said the little prince. - There is a flower ... I think she has tamed me ..." And 'possible' the fox said, "everything happens on Earth."
"Oh! is not on earth, "said the little prince.
The fox seemed perplexed," on another planet? "
" Yes "
There are hunters on this planet?"
"No."
is interesting! Are there chickens? "
"No."
This is a step of one of my favorite books. How to stand out from reading about "the domestication" how to create bonds, bonds of friendship ..
Antoine de Saint-Exupery is phenomenal in so doing, through the words he is able to convey the specific desire to domesticate the fox to the Little Prince and adds a bit after 'row:

The fox fell silent and looked at along the Little Prince: "Please tame me ..." he said.
"Willingly," replied the little prince, "but do not have much time, though. I have friends to discover and learn many things."
"One only understands the things that one tames" said the fox. "Men have more time to learn anything. They buy things already made. But there is no shop with friends, men no longer have friends. If you want a friend, tame me!"
"What should I do?" asked the little prince.
"We must be very patient," said the fox. "In the beginning you will sit down a bit 'away from me, so the grass. I'll watch with one eye and you will say nothing. Words are a source of misunderstandings. But every day you will sit a bit 'closer ... "
The little prince came back the next day.
Here the fox explains what it is, in this fantasy world, friendship and especially what it means to domesticate.
I think everyone should be reading these passages of the book, want to read it in full, I can only advice, I read about thirty times, and I can always find new interesting little details that help me to shed light the difficulties that we are all inclined to deal with daily.
