“The Ancient Romans did not regard acts of genius to emanate from within an individual - but rather saw it as a collaboration between a spirit of creativity and a human being. So it could be that sometimes an individual had that power, that divine inspiration, or other times not. The spirit might have moved on to some other lucky soul.” HumansSoulSometimesInspirationMightSpiritIndividualHuman BeingsCreativitySawsDivineGeniusLuckyRegardMovedAncientCollaborationMoved OnEmanateDivine Inspiration Author:Liz Garbus
“Pharisaism, obtuseness and tyranny reign not only in the homes of merchants and in jails; I see it in science, in literature, and among youth. I consider any emblem or label a prejudice....

“Emile Saint-Blague had been a lively, versatile painter in his youth, but he had abused his energy by painting too many pictures; so that in what might have been the ripe period of his art he had nothing left but ideas.

Emile was certainly an inspiration to his friends.” MenMayHas BeensArtIdeasUseInspirationMightEnergyLeftYouthPaintingPeriodsSaintPainterMight Have BeenRipeLivelyVersatileGreat Service Author:Laura Riding

“For most of the world, there's no greater symbol of America than the Statue of Liberty. It has been an inspiration to generations of immigrants. One of these immigrants was a poet-writer named Ameen Rihani. Gazing at her lamp held high, he wondered whether her sister might be erected in the lands of his Arab forefathers.
