There are, as always, obvious answers to this. We could answer that our parents inspire us, or our teachers, and it would be true. But, in reality, the man who inspires us most is this man:
 |
| Sir Terry Pratchett. |
He is the man that brought the world this:
 |
| Discworld is carried on the back of four elephants who stand atop the Great Atuin. |
Terry Pratchet has brought the world such gems as:
“Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.”
and...
“"I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worth while?" Death thought about it "Cats," he said eventually, "Cats are Nice”
as well as...
“The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it”
and then again, too...
“Light thinks it travels faster than anything but it is wrong. No matter how fast light travels, it finds the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it.”
and one of my favorites...
“People who are rather more than six feet tall and nearly as broad across the shoulders often have uneventful journeys. People jump out at them from behind rocks then say things like, "Oh. Sorry. I thought you were someone else."”
