Inspiration Quotes
-
We flatter those we scarcely know, We please the fleeting guest; And deal full many a thoughtless blow, To those who love us best.

There is new strength, repose of mind, and inspiration in fresh apparel.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Inspiration is not the exclusive privilege of poets or artists. There is, there has been, there will always be a certain group of people whom inspiration visits. It's made up of all those who've consciously chosen their calling and do their job with love and imagination. Difficulties and setbacks never quell their curiosity. A swarm of new questions emerges from every problem that they solve. Whatever inspiration is, it's born from a continuous 'I don't know.'
Wislawa Szymborska
