Modification: Flowers for your garden
Free Software is like buying flowers for your garden. If the seed of
those flowers spreads and you get more flowers, you can give those
seeds or flowers away if you want to. Proprietary software is like
signing an agreement that you will never ever use or give away those
seeds or flowers.
And accordings to my mother, in the gardening community, such an idea
would be considered madness and an insult to the craft. ;)
There are many patents on plants and seeds, see:

http://seedfreedom.in/learn/who-owns-the-seed/
But I like: "Proprietary software is like patented seed".
