什么才是正经事？

maycatUID: 154301

几百万年以来花儿都在制造着刺，几百万年以来羊仍然在吃花。要搞清楚为什么花儿费那么大劲给自己制造没有什么用的刺，这难道不是正经事？难道羊和花之间的战争不重要？这难道不比那个大胖子红脸先生的帐目更重要？如果我认识一朵人世间唯一的花，只有我的星球上有它，别的地方都不存在，而一只小羊胡里胡涂就这样把它一下子毁掉了，这难道不重要？"

"The flowers have been growing thorns for millions of years. For millions of years the sheep have been eating them just the same. And is it not a matter of consequence to try to understand why the flowers go to so much trouble to grow thorns which are never of any use to them? Is the warfare between the sheep and the flowers not important? Is this not of more consequence than a fat red-faced gentleman's sums? And if I know-- I, myself-- one flower which is unique in the world, which grows nowhere but on my planet, but which one little sheep can destroy in a single bite some morning, without even noticing what he is doing-- Oh! You think that is not important!"

摘自《小王子》

    《小王子》这部书还是不错的，不过哲学性强了点，寓言的深度也太大，反倒不适宜作为一本儿童读物，更像是一本给大人找回童心的一本唤醒式读物。
    如果用心去读，我想你是能够从中找回一些失去的东西，不仅仅是童心。

现在要我们的孩子思考到这个深度呀？

翻译的也很贴切。

小王子？有现成的链接或者电子版么？
