I hope you find my 200th post inspirational, although it is really just a cut and paste job...
from http://humanityquest.com/Themes/Inspiration/ArticleGuidelines/:In reply to:The word inspiration comes to English from the French word, inspire, whose origin has been traced back to the Latin words in and spirare (breathe), or in other words, to breathe into. The Latin root word spirare forms the base of other English words, such as; aspire (rough or audible breathing), conspire (breathe together), expire (breathe out), perspire (breathe through), transpire (breathe across) and spirit (breath of life).
