'Inspiration' is a word used by people who aren't really doing anything.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't work with inspiration. Inspiration is for amateurs. I just get to work.
The thing about inspiration is that it takes your mind off everything else.
A lot of people think inspiration means magic. But really, inspiration means to put life into something.
To me, the question of inspiration is an exercise in hindsight. The truth is, inspiration is mysterious at the time. I don't think it's ever a rational process.
I don't believe in the model of pure inspiration. All of my creative work stems from a dialogue with others.
Inspiration doesn't really work like that - you're not looking out for it. Inspiration is something that tends to capture you rather than you capture it.
You can find inspiration when you're not even looking for it.
Sometimes you need to take a departure from what you do to something that's slightly different in order to get inspiration.
Inspiration may be a form of super-consciousness, or perhaps of subconsciousness I wouldn't know. But I am sure it is the antithesis of self-consciousness.
Inspiration usually comes during work, rather than before it.
