I am writing a paragraph in response to a passage from Lord of the Flies. The paragraph is about the symbolisim of butterflies. If it will help at all here is the passage: "Beyond the screen of leaves the sunlight pelted down and the butterflies danced in the middle their unending dance." Pleez try to keep the quotes sophisticated. Thanks

If I were you I would just go to the following site where there are many, many butterfly quotes. http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/keywords/butterflies.html
For example:
Everyone is like a butterfly, they start out ugly and awkward and then morph into beautiful graceful butterflies that everyone loves.
Drew Barrymore
We are closer to the ants than to the butterflies. Very few people can endure much leisure.
Gerald Brenan
Men pass in front of our eyes like butterflies, creatures of a brief season. We love them; they are brave, proud, beautiful, clever; and they die almost at once. They die so soon that our hearts are continually racked with pain.
Philip Pullman
