It's a tweaked-version of a line from King Lear by Shakespeare - "We will all laugh at gilded butterflies." The line is actually "We will laugh at gilded butterflies," and has dark connotations in the play - Lear says it to Cordelia as he imagines the two of them in prison together (silver lining?). She is killed, however - the line is a rather sad fantasy that will never be - a pointedly pitiful moment. However there is another one on her rib cage that says "There Once Was A Little Girl Who Never Knew Love Unil A Boy Broke Her HEART." In old English hand writing.
