Chapter 23 ↵ Good morning, ” said the little

prince. ↵ Good morning, ” said the merchant. ↵

This was a merchant who sold pills that had been

invented to quench thirst. You need only swallow

one pill a week, and you would feel no need of

anything to drink. ↵ Why are you selling those?

asked the little prince. ↵ Because they save a

tremendous amount of time, ” said the merchant.

Computations have been made by experts. With

these pills, you save fifty-three minutes in

every week. ↵ And what do I do with those

fifty-three minutes? ↵ Anything you like. . . ↵

As for me, ” said the little prince to himself, “

if I had fifty-three minutes to spend as I liked,

I should walk at my leisure toward a spring of

fresh water. ↵
