A living poem had always been the words that came to mind when he tried to describe her to others.“Success is one part inspiration, nine parts desperation.I learned never to empty the well of my writing, but always to stop when there was still something there in the deep part of the well, and let it refill at night from the springs that fed it.Coming up with ideas is the easiest thing on earth. Putting them down is the hardest.Anxiety is the hand maiden of creativity.Act on inspiration when it strikes.Who knows where inspiration comes from. Perhaps it arises from desperation. Perhaps it comes from the flukes of the universe, the kindness of the muses.Ideas seem to come from everywhere - my life, everything I see, hear, and read, and most of all, from my imagination. I have a lot of imagination.Surround yourself with people and things that inspire you. Learn everything you can.I do not go in search of poetry. I wait for poetry to visit me.Originality is the fine art of remembering what you hear but forgetting where you heard it.A true artist is not one who is inspired, but one who inspires others.Love is one of my main inspirations.For me, money is not my definition of success. Inspiring people is a definition of success.
