Butterfly Sayings 🦋 in 2024

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. 

Just as the bird sings or the butterfly soars, because it is his natural characteristic, so the artist works.

Butterflies are nature’s angels. They remind us what a gift it is to be alive.

The caterpillar does all the work but the butterfly gets all the publicity. 

Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee.

Love is like a butterfly: It goes where it pleases and it pleases wherever it goes.

Not quite birds, as they were not quite flowers, mysterious and fascinating as are all indeterminate creatures. 

I began writing when I was still in the British Foreign Service, and it was then understood that even if you wrote about butterfly collecting, you used another name. 

Eyes are drugs. There are all Butterflies in my eyes, be safe Dear creatures.

The butterfly does not count the months of its life but rather it counts the moments and yet all the time it has is still enough. 

A butterfly is a miracle, a divine creation that fleets, propelling the caterpillar within, an array of predators it cheats.

Butterflies, they are like dream flowers, childhood dreams, which have broken loose from their stalks and escaped into the sunshine.

Read like a butterfly, write like a bee

You put butterflies back into my soul and painted their wings with passion and poetry.

Know thyself. A maxim as pernicious as it is ugly. Whoever studies himself arrest his own development. A caterpillar who seeks to know himself would never become a butterfly. 

There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it’s going to be a butterfly. 

‘Just living is not enough,’ said the butterfly, ‘one must have sunshine, freedom and a little flower.’

Everybody knows what a caterpillar is, and it doesn’t look anything like a butterfly.
