If the caterpillar thinks about the butterfly it is to become, saying â€˜And then I shall have wings and antennae,â€™ there will never be a butterfly. The caterpillar must accept its own disappearance in its transformation. When the marvelous butterfly takes wing, nothing of the caterpillar remains.”
