In life you need either inspiration or desperation.
Anthony (Tony) Robbins
There are two situations that make interesting stories: when an extraordinary person is plunged into the commonplace, and when an ordinary person gets involved in extraordinary events.
Sister Helen Prejean
All the inspiration I ever needed was a phone call from a producer.
Cole Porter
You beat your Pate, and fancy Wit will come: Knock as you please, there's no body at home.
Alexander Pope
Inherent in the ordination to be bishop is both the right and the obligation to be directed by inspiration.
Boyd K. Packer
The glow of inspiration warms us; it is a holy rapture.
Publius Ovidius Naso Ovid
The miracle is this — the more we share, the more we have.
Leonard Nimoy
The great composer . . . does not set to work because he is inspired, but becomes inspired because he is working. Beethoven, Wagner, Bach, and Mozart settled down day after day to the job in hand with as much regularity as an accountant settles down each day to his figures. They didn't waste time waiting for inspiration.
Ernest Newman
Sometimes, if you stand on the bottom rail of a bridge and lean over to watch the river slipping slowly away beneath you, you will suddenly know everything there is to be known.
Alan Alexander Milne
Every man has his own destiny; the only imperative is to follow it, to accept it, no matter where it leads him.
Henry Miller
There is no end to what you can accomplish if (or when) you don't care who gets the credit.
