“The universe is made of stories, not of atoms.” – Muriel Rukeyser

Stories are what hold humanity together.
Thousands of years ago, tales told by wise men, shamans, and seers gave birth to the first legends — the foundations of ancient beliefs and cultures. Throughout history, every civilization has told its own story, the echoes of which we now call myths. Our lives are woven through with these narratives from cradle to grave. As children we called them fairy tales, later they became adventure novels, and in the modern age they took the form of movies and series. Yet they have always been with us, shaping our days — because history itself is nothing but the telling of stories. Great stories, whether led by everyday heroes or extraordinary ones, leave their mark on us. They live among us — their likenesses decorate our clothes and objects, their words we can quote by heart. Stories come alive in their heroes, symbols, and iconic objects, bringing us comfort, strength, and a sense of belonging. Through them, the symbols and figures of our stories become the legends of our everyday lives.

The Little Prince, written by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, is his most famous novel, first published in 1943. The story is a gentle yet profound reflection of human society — a kind of caricature that, through the eyes of a child, reminds us of truths that remain timeless.
Every scene carries a lesson, guiding us through the encounters of a pure-hearted, curious boy whose innocence unveils the deeper meaning of life. Among his companions, perhaps the wisest of all is the Fox, who teaches him — and us — what truly matters in life.
