Richard BachWhat the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly.
About This Quote
The caterpillar, as it grows bigger, becomes more and more dangerous to the entire world. That is how the caterpillar grows. So, what do you call a butterfly? A butterfly. The caterpillar says, “Nothing will ever be the same again after I’m done growing.” And how does the butterfly respond? “The things you do now will never be important again after I’m done growing. But right now, all that is important is what I can do to help the world be a better place.”
