Hmm… I am thinking of the conversation between the Little Prince and the Fox, where the Fox says that one must take responsibility for what one tames.
I think it has been so long since I read any of St Exupery’s work to really recall what the admonition was. It was 30 years ago, I believe. I also recall in Night Flight that one of the Characters was admonished for the death of a pilot, and although the person had little to do with the death. The admonishing character later explains that what he did had little to do with right/wrong, but about making sure that pilots did not die.
Is that the admonishment to which you are referring?

Yes, that is what I was thinking of. I hadn’t read about the Little Prince and the Fox.
