A quotation from Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always explaining things to them.
 
[Les grandes personnes ne comprennent jamais rien toutes seules, et c’est fatigant, pour les enfants, de toujours et toujours leur donner des explications.]

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (1900-1944) French writer, aviator
Le Petit Prince [The Little Prince], ch. 1 (1943) [tr. Wood (1945)]
