1. 1

    As a verb, to muse means to think quietly and slowly about something, often gazing off into the distance while you do it — 'she mused about her future' means she thought about it calmly, without rushing to a conclusion. As a noun, a muse is a person, or sometimes an idea or place, that inspires an artist and gives them ideas — the word comes from the Muses, goddesses of art and inspiration in ancient Greek stories. A painter might call their favorite model their 'muse.'
