"There is, has been, and will always be a certain group of people whom inspiration visits.
It's made up of all those who've consciously chosen their calling and do their job with love and imagination...
Their work becomes one continuous adventure as long as they manage to keep discovering new challenges in it."
Wislawa Szymborska, 1996
