Has Bill Clinton inspired idealism in the young as he himself was inspired by John F. Kennedy? Or has he actually reduced their idealism? Surely part of the answer lies in Clinton's personal moral lapse with Monica Lewinsky. But more important was his sin of omission - his failure to embrace a moral cause beyond popularity.

I'm always hoping for the nights that are inspired where you almost have an out of body experience.

Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened ambition inspired and success achieved.

Scotland is my country the nation that shaped me that taught me my values. A nation whose achievements inspired and inspire me a community whose failings drive me - drive my overwhelming desire to fight for social justice and equality.

A writer should get as much education as possible but just going to school is not enough if it were all owners of doctorates would be inspired writers.

I'm very jealous of my daughter's education. She's been inspired by her teachers and nobody inspired me as a teenager.

I was very inspired by Les Blank's film 'Burden of Dreams.' I think what's unique about his film and the two I've made is that they're close examinations of filmmakers and how their own emotional experiences reflect in the material they're rendering and vice versa - how that material sometimes colors their own lives.

The Columbia is lost but the dreams that inspired its crew remain with us.

While I was at college studying design I decided to paint. I was also greatly inspired by the colours that I had seen on my travels in the Brazilian Rain forest.

Design works if it's authentic inspired and has a clear point of view. It can't be a collection of input.

The tragedy of life is in what dies inside a man while he lives - the death of genuine feeling the death of inspired response the awareness that makes it possible to feel the pain or the glory of other men in yourself.

My dad was good friends with the Bad Medicine Blues Band - one of the only blues bands in Fargo as you can imagine! He took me out to see them play when I was 12 years old and I was really inspired by their guitar player Ted Larsen.

I started off playing the clarinet after I was inspired by listening to my dad's Benny Goodman records.

I love being a dad it keeps me fit and inspired and children are so funny. They always supply you with acting material!

I've always been inspired by artists who have shown musical and intellectual curiosity and the courage to take risks.

The name Crow was inspired by a number of things. I thought it would be cool to have a robot with sort of a Native American feel to it.
