Spark Quotes: The Words That Inspire Your Creativity
“Every child is an artist. The problem is staying an artist when he grows up.”
— Pablo Picasso

Sometimes we get our creative inspiration from reading long books, watching epic movies, or wandering in a museum for hours. Or it might just take a short quotation to inspire our curiosity and creativity. We jot quotes down in notebooks and on post-it notes; we carry them in our wallets, use them in wedding toasts, and share them with our friends.
Studio 360 wants to share some your favorite quotes on the air.
STEP 1: Record yourself.
- Set yourself up in a quiet room and record your voice using the Voice Memos app on your iPhone, the S Memo app on your Samsung, or any program you have on your phone, PC, or laptop.
- Tell us your name, where you listen to the show, and then read the short quote (be sure to tell us who said it).
- Listen back to what you’ve recorded and make sure it’s clear.
STEP 2: Upload the audio file (mp3 preferred).
Or email it to sparkquote360@gmail.com.
STEP 3: We’ll pick the best ones, set them to music, and feature them on the show and online throughout the year. Listen above for an example.
We’re going fully digital on this one, so if you’re not technologically-inclined, ask your friends and family for help to share your inspiration with Studio 360 — and the world!
The story you just read is available for free because thousands of listeners and readers like you generously support our nonprofit newsroom. Every day, reporters and producers at The World are hard at work bringing you human-centered news from across the globe. But we can’t do it without you: We need your support to ensure we can continue this work for another year.
Make a gift today, and you’ll get us one step closer to our goal of raising $25,000 by June 14. We need your help now more than ever!
