You can chase a butterfly all over the field and never catch it. But if you sit quietly in the grass it will come and sit on your shoulder.Author Unknown
I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man."
Chuang Tzu
Butterflies are self propelled flowers.
R.H. Heinlein
I've watched you now a full half-hour;
Self-poised upon that yellow flower
And, little Butterfly! Indeed
I know not if you sleep or feed.
How motionless! - not frozen seas
More motionless! and then
What joy awaits you, when the breeze
Hath found you out among the trees,
And calls you forth again!
~William Wordsworth
He said that we belonged together because he was born with a flower and I was born with a butterfly and that flowers and butterflies need each other for survival.”
Gemma Malley,
*I saw a butterfly just yesterday... it seemed that it wasn't quite ready to relinquish its hold on summer yet either!
