Muse Quotations
O! for a muse of fire, that would ascend the brightest heaven of invention. William Shakespeare For hundreds of years people have talked about artists having inspiration, but often, some persons would say, write us a symphony or write us a song, on commission. The artists would come up with a masterpiece without waiting to have their muse inspire them. Tom Glazer Most bands have a sound that they're already identified with, so for the producer it becomes a process of helping them find their muse in the studio to make a record that will not only satisfy them artistically, but will also do something in the marketplace. Jerry Harrison I have no ambition to surprise my reader. Castles with unknown passages are not compatible with my homely muse. Anthony Trollope When inspiration does not come, I go for a walk, go to the movie, talk to a friend, let go... The muse is bound to return again, especially if I turn my back! Judy Collins |
