Leadership is
based on inspiration,
not domination; on cooperation,
not
intimidation.
William Arthur Ward

It
usually happens that the more faithfully people follow
the inspirations they receive, the more do they experience
new inspirations which ask increasingly more of them.
Joseph

Inspiration does not come like a bolt, nor is it
kinetic, energetic, striving,
but it comes to us slowly and quietly and all the time, though we
must
regularly and every day give it a little chance to start flowing,
prime it
with a little solitude and idleness.
Brenda Ueland

We
should be taught not to wait for inspiration to start
a thing. Action always generates inspiration. Inspiration
seldom generates action.
Frank Tibolt

When
you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project,
all
your thoughts break their bonds; Your mind transcends limitations, your
consciousness expands in every direction, and you find yourself in a new,
great and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties and talents become
alive, and you discover
yourself to be a greater person by far
than you ever dreamed yourself to
be.
Patanjali

Here is the secret of
inspiration: Tell yourself
that
thousands and tens of thousands of people, not very
intelligent and
certainly no more intelligent than the
rest of us, have mastered problems
as difficult as
those that now baffle you.

Inspiration does
exist, but it must find you working.
Pablo Picasso

|
Nature
is my
manifestation of
God. I go to nature
every
day for
inspiration in the
day's work. I follow
in building
the
principles which nature
has used in its domain.
Frank
Lloyd Wright

You can't wait for inspiration. You have to go after
it with a club.
Jack London

Inspiration
comes whenever it wants, even at the most unlikely times
and in the most inappropriate situations. Often it arrives bit by
bit.
Therefore it must be anchored, and this is where a most valuable
item makes its appearance: the notebook.
Piero Ferrucci

Inspiration means
that you don't have to figure things out, or think
about them. Ideas and answers pop into your head and the
energy carries you forward, if you allow it. Planning… is a way
of ritually killing inspiration, which transcends the need for planning.

The notion that inspiration is
something that happened thousands of years ago,
and was then finished and done with. . . the theory that God retired from
business
at that period and has not been heard from since, is as silly as it is
blasphemous.
George Bernard Shaw |

Inspiration is never genuine if it is known as
inspiration
at the time. True
inspiration always steals on a person,
its importance not being fully
recognized for some time.
Samuel Butler

Inspiration
is wonderful when it happens, but the writer must develop
an
approach for the rest of the time. . . The wait is simply too
long.
