More and more, when I single out the person out who inspired me most, I go back to my grandfather.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
All my life, I've wanted to write a book inspired by my relationship with my grandfather. Basically, my grandfather was a guy who everybody in the family regarded as disagreeable at best. But I loved him intensely. He was wonderful to me.
I'm constantly being inspired by the old days and taking things from the past and allowing them to lift me up where I am now.
I get inspired at different times and in different ways.
My grandfather went through a lot in his life.
My grandfather had a particularly important influence on my life, even though I didn't visit him often, since he lived about three miles out of town and he died when I was six. He was remarkably curious about the world, and he read lots of books.
My father is my inspiration.
My grandmother is the person who inspires me the most.
My grandmother influenced me so deeply.
My grandmother is one of the biggest inspirations of my life. She was my biggest fan, and she made sure everybody knew it. Her never-ending joy was infectious, and there wasn't anyone who could beat her at partying and having fun.
My parents and my grandmother inspire me every day and, every day, in my work and personal life.
