    Default what inspires you?

    Hi everyone,

    It seems we've had a few tough, dark posts here lately and I wanted to try and address the other side of the human equation--our ability to rise above hard things and keep on keepin' on. So I'm wondering what inspires you in these days of winter--memories, moments, quotes?

    I had a bit of a hard year in 2007, but I found a quote that I've written down and carry with me that seems to be inspiring me. It is from Vince Lombardi: "Real glory is being knocked to your knees, and coming back."

    How about you?

    A dancer named Aphrodite who actually lived up to the name inspires me. Edward Norton inspires me.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson and Abraham Lincoln inspire me.

    As for quotes, "You miss one hundred percent of the shots you never take" by hockey legend wayne gretzky.

    A lot of things, but I'm also pretty easily amused.

    I inspire myself. I'm a narcissist like that, but it's okay cause Molly says that narcissists are, statistically, the happiest people.

    Music and writing, and frequent hot baths, and a quote from Thelma & Louise:

    "You get what you settle for."

    My son and his friends. Kids impress the shit out of me these days. They jump right into things that I would have never dreamed of doing.
