It's always a combination of physics and poetry that I find inspiring. It's hard to wrap your head around things like the Hubble scope.

I'm not terribly happy about rock and roll. Certain rock music is uninspiring numbing it makes you feel like an idiot.

Well I was eight years old and I have an older cousin who is three years older than me and she was doing acting commercials and modeling at the time and... to see my cousin doing that was really inspiring and I wanted to do it. So I went to my mom and I asked her if I could do it and for the acting part of it she made me study for a year.

Aretha Franklin was a teenage mom a musician who came from an incredibly Christian background but there was a lot of love which is really inspiring in a feminist way.

There's lots of problem solving in any marriage but when you have this collective goal that is a human being it's an inspiring rally point.

Sometimes a technology is so awe-inspiring that the imagination runs away with it - often far far away from reality. Robots are like that. A lot of big and ultimately unfulfilled promises were made in robotics early on based on preliminary successes.

One of the things I like best about 'Biggest Loser' is being around people who are trying to make the right choices. When you feel defeated about your weight and your health like there's no hope and you still make the choice to fight for it to make the change happen no matter what people say or think that's inspiring to me.

Advertising ministers to the spiritual side of trade. It is great power that has been entrusted to your keeping which charges you with the high responsibility of inspiring and ennobling the commercial world. It is all part of the greater work of the regeneration and redemption of mankind.

While negativity is politically useful it is also demoralizing unless it is accompanied - and to some extent overshadowed - by elevated and inspiring ideas about the American future.

It is great to add some glamour to the food industry like television shows have done for the food world and inspiring people to work in the industry. The flip side of that is unfortunately people think that after they get their qualifications they get their invitation to compete on 'Top Chef.'

It's very important to have the right clothing to exercise in. If you throw on an old T-shirt or sweats it's not inspiring for your workout.

Everyone always asks me 'Do you want to be famous... ' I never really thought about becoming famous. I just want to work to be able to put out inspiring and good film and TV.

I was a dancer and it's not really cool for a boy to dance so it was inspiring to see a movie like 'Footloose' where a guy is dancing masculine and had a proper reason behind it. It made me feel cool and when these kids would make fun of me I'd be like 'Oh didn't you see 'Footloose ' man?'

Under Barack Obama the only 'Change' is that 'Hope' has been hard to find. Now millions of Americans are insecure about their future. But instead of inspiring us by reminding us of what makes us special he divides us against each other. He tells Americans they're worse off because others are better off. That people got rich by making others poor.

I got to work with one of my heroes Johnny Depp and to see how he goes about business which was really inspiring for me at this stage in my career.
