“How does one become a butterfly?”
Pooh asked pensively…
“You must want to fly so much that you’re
willing to give up being a caterpillar,”
Piglet replied……
“You mean you die?”
Asked Pooh.
“Yes and no” he answered.
“What looks like you will die but what’s really you will live on.”
-A.A. Milan, Winnie the Pooh
That should be A.A. Milne, reason I hate literary posers.
and it’s actually a quote from Trina Paulus’, Hope for the Flowers
A. A Milne wrote in the 1920s. Trina Paulus wrote in 1970s! The quote is Milne’s.
