I have four or five ideas that just keep floating around and I want to kind of just let one - like a beautiful butterfly, let it land somewhere. Gillian Flynn
I would like to think that the singer is the butterfly, and the drummer was just the little grub in the ground, working to become a caterpillar. Robert Wyatt
When a small child, I thought that success spelled happiness. I was wrong, happiness is like a butterfly which appears and delights us for one brief moment, but soon flits away. Anna Pavlova
