Time Enough

Channel surfing tonight while getting my lymphedema wraps on, and came across the Miss USA pageant just as the outgoing Miss USA was taking her final walk. Her recorded comments started out as the usual sentimental tripe, so her final remark caught me off-guard and unexpectedly brought tears to my eyes:
"...I am again reminded of the butterfly, who has not months, but moments; and has time enough."
Not sure what the touchstone was. Wonder if she was quoting someone; if you recognize it, let me know!
