Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Perfection is achieved not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.

Genuine and primary-sourced. Original French, from the chapter on the airplane: 'Il semble que la perfection soit atteinte non quand il n'y a plus rien a ajouter, mais quand il n'y a plus rien a retrancher.' The English here is a standard faithful rendering. Note the author name should carry the accent: Antoine de Saint-Exupery -> Saint-Exupery (Saint-Exupéry).

It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.

Primary source confirmed: the fox's secret in chapter XXI of Le Petit Prince. Original French: 'On ne voit bien qu'avec le coeur. L'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux.' The English wording here matches the common Katherine Woods-lineage rendering. Author name should carry the accent (Saint-Exupéry).
