"To be inspired: we know what it means, even how it sometimes feels, but what is it exactly? Filled suddenly and often helplessly with renewed life and energy, a sense of excitement that can barely be contained; but why some things- a word, a glance, a scene glimpsed from a window, a random memory, a fragrance, a conversational anecdote, a fragment of music, or of a dream- have the power to stimulate us to intense creativity while most others do not, we are unable to say. We all know what it is like to have been inspired, in the past; yet we can't have faith that we will be inspired in the future." - Joyce Carol Oates

"To stay Human is to break a limitation. Like it if you can. Like it if you dare."
Joyce Carol Oates
"The strangeness of Time. Not in its passing, which can seem infinite, like a tunnel whose end you can't see, whose beginning you've forgotten, but in the sudden realization that something finite, a piece of Time, has passed, and is irretrievable."
