"Planting native species in our gardens and communities is increasingly important,

because indigenous insects, birds and wildlife rely on them.

Over thousands, and sometimes millions, of years

they have co-evolved to live in local climate and soil conditions."

~David Suzuki

 "Our treasure lies in the beehive of our knowledge.
We are perpetually on the way thither, 

being by nature winged insects and honey gatherers of the mind."

~Friedrich Nietzsche

"Art is the fatal net which catches these strange moments

on the wing like mysterious butterflies, 

fleeing the innocence and distraction of common men."

~Giorgio de Chirico

"Everyone is like a butterfly, 

they start out ugly and awkward 

and then morph into beautiful graceful butterflies that everyone loves."

~Drew Barrymore

"I loved being outside.
We'd hold lightning bugs in our fingers

and pretend they were diamond rings."

"The poets say a moth will do anything out of love for a flame..."

They're more mysterious and exotic."
