Chapter 11 ↵ The second planet was inhabited by a

conceited man. ↵ Ah! Ah! I am about to receive a

visit from an admirer! he exclaimed from afar,

when he first saw the little prince coming. ↵

For, to conceited men, all other men are

admirers. ↵ Good morning, ” said the little

prince. That is a queer hat you are wearing. ↵

It is a hat for salutes, ” the conceited man

replied. It is to raise in salute when people

acclaim me. Unfortunately, nobody at all ever

passes this way. ↵ Yes? said the little prince,

who did not understand what the conceited man was

talking about. ↵ Clap your hands, one against

the other, ” the conceited man now directed him.

↵ The little prince clapped his hands. The

conceited man raised his hat in a modest salute.

↵ This is more entertaining than the visit to

the king, ” the little prince said to himself.

And he began again to clap his hands, one against

the other. The conceited man again raised his hat

in salute. ↵ After five minutes of this exercise

the little prince grew tired of the game's

monotony. ↵ And what should one do to make the

hat come down? he asked. ↵ But the conceited man

did not hear him. Conceited people never hear

anything but praise. ↵ Do you really admire me

very much? he demanded of the little prince. ↵

What does that mean—'admire'? ↵ To admire means

that you regard me as the handsomest, the

best-dressed, the richest, and the most

intelligent man on this planet. ↵ But you are

the only man on your planet! ↵ Do me this

kindness. Admire me just the same. ↵ I admire

you, ” said the little prince, shrugging his

shoulders slightly, “but what is there in that to

interest you so much? ↵ And the little prince

went away. ↵ The grown-ups are certainly very

odd, ” he said to himself, as he continued on his

journey. ↵
