"Nothing. I own them."
“我要它做甚么？”
关于甚么是端庄事，小王子的观点与大人们的观点非常分歧：“我有一朵花，我每天都给她浇水。我另有三座火山，我每礼拜清理它们，连死火山也清理。谁晓得它会不会再重生呢！我具有火山和花，这对我的火山有好处，对我的花也有好处。但是你对星星并没有效处……”
Chapter 13
"The grown-ups are certainly altogether extraordinary," he said simply, talking to himself as he continued on his journey.
“三加二即是五。五加七即是十二。十二加三即是十五。你好。十五加七即是二十二。二十二加六即是二十八。我没偶然候重新点着它。二十六加五，三十一。哎哟！一共是五亿零一百六十二万二千七百三十一。”
“五亿甚么呀？”
"It is entertaining," thought the little prince. "It is rather poetic. But it is of no great consequence."On matters of consequence, the little prince had ideas which were very different from those of the grown-ups.
“几百万甚么？”
"You own the stars"
“嗯？你还待在这儿？五亿零一百万……我也不晓得是甚么了。我的事情很多……我是个端庄的人，没有工夫去闲谈！二加五即是七……”

“五亿零一百万甚么呀？”小王子对峙问道。他提出题目以后，没有答案是向来不会放弃的。
“我运营办理它们。我一遍又一各处计算它们的数量。这很困难。但我是一个端庄的人！”
“是的，我不能摘下来，但我能够把它们存在银行里。”
“你要这五亿多的星星做甚么？”
“几百万个小东西，这些小东西偶然呈现在天上。”
