French Lessons


In the novel The Little Prince by the French writer St. Exupéry, a young boy meets a pilot in the Sahara Desert. The boy asks the pilot to draw him a sheep. The pilot provides several drawings to the prince, none of which are acceptable, for various reasons. One sheep is too old to suit the prince; another looks somewhat sickly. Finally, the pilot hands the prince a drawing of a box. Your sheep, he says to the prince, is inside this box.
The Danes should have taken a lesson from the French.
You want a picture of the prophet Mohammed? Here's your prophet.
