    About this ebook

    Thomas Edison once commented that genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration. It is the one percent that produces the spark to ignite the light of creative action. It also provides the basis of this book, which contains quotations from many sources past and present on the subject of Inspiration. Most of us have, at some time or another, encountered a person whose words or deeds – and maybe both – captured our imagination and gave us a glimpse of what can be achieved by a human being who refuses to believe in the impossibility of their dreams.

    There are lots of quotations here to make you think and encourage you to find your own inspiration by applying some of the words to yourself. True inspiration provides motivation.

    You can continue to merely dream or read these quotations and be inspired to take yourself to a new level!
