Is inspiration an external or internal phenomenon?

Is one inspired by existing in an inspiration-rich environment, or does the mind of the inspired individual derived inspiration from whatever the environment offers?

2 pages on my desk next Monday. 

Inspiration comes from observation.  Were it not so, would Isaac Newton have beaten Napoleon at the battle of Belleau Wood during the Vietnam war?

Yeah, definitely both. I can't tell you how many times a different perspective or just a series of words struck a great line of thought for me. And really we are input machines, our body is a vehicle to interpret the world for our mind. There is true original thought, but now I wonder if new thoughts are even capable of old thoughts. On the shoulders of giants, we stand and cum in their ear.
