"There's a moth, more than one in fact, that lives only on tears," he offered. "That's all they eat or drink."
"What kind of tears? Whose tears?"
"The tears of large land mammals, about our size.
The old definition of moth was, 'anything that gradually, silently eats, consumes, or wages any other thing.'
It was a verb for destruction too. . . .”
—Thomas Harris, The Silence of the Lambs

I mean, I-I have absolutely no idea what we're doing here. Or what I'm doing here, or what this place is about, but I am determined to enjoy myself. And I'm very intrigued, and, oh my, this soup's delicious, isn't it? - Ms. peacock, Clue


There is a side of the Moon which we never see, but that hidden half is as potent a factor in causing the ebb and flow of the Earth's tide as the part of the Moon which is visible.
— Max Heindel

“It was the moths that first revealed the change. Grey-tipped whispers in the moonlit night. Two or three here, a single one there. White ones slipping through the darkness, silent and seemingly harmless, but present. Growing in numbers until they erupted the quiet like flutters of falling ash. There was a music in their silence. The kind of music that attached itself to hums and vibrations in the waters of the earth.
— Debi Cimo, Delicate The alchemy of Emily Greyson

— Wendelin Van Draanen

“Moths lay their eggs where civilizations have been destroyed.”
— Marty Rubin


“Life is a series of moments and moments are always changing, just like thoughts, negative and positive. And though it may be human nature to dwell, like many natural things it's senseless, senseless to allow a single thought to inhabit a mind because thoughts are like guests or fair-weather friends. As soon as they arrive, they can leave, and even the ones that take a long time to emerge fully can disappear in an instant. Moments are precious; sometimes they linger and other times they're fleeting, and yet so much could be done in them; you could change a mind, you could save a life and you could even fall in love.”
— Cecelia Ahern


"How do you know?" Her smile is sweet, curls at the ends impishly. "Have you been to the moon. How do you know what lies in the hedge upon her beautiful face. Do you think they were smart enough to send a Lost up to find out?" She tilts her head lashes fluttering, "For ages there have been myths of the Moon Goddess and the Man in the Moon. Perhaps they live in a silvery kingdom where no one ever gets lost and lovely moths dance the night away." - Lulu
