Walt Disney was able to create a world in which fairytales and cartoons would be loved for decades. He was a creative genius. Walt Disney deserves to be honored because of all the joy he has brought so many of us. He started the company that brought us so many wonderful movies, TV shows, and amusement parks. He was the original voice of Mickey Mouse, perhaps the most successful cartoon character of all time.
Walt Disney was an artist, animator, cartoonist and dreamer. From an early age Walt drew and painted pictures which he then went out and sold to his neighbors (Walt Disney Biography, 2013). Perhaps it was Walt Disney’s upbringing, perhaps not. But Walt Disney was cultivating a unique reality that families want to spend time in. It is a testament to the strength of his talents and dreams that it has prospered over his creations of Steamboat Willie and Silly Symphonies, after his distributor Margaret Winkler and her husband, Charles Mintz, had stolen the rights to Oswald, along with all of Disney’s animators, except for Ub Eert Iwerks (Walt Disney Biography, 2013).

Commonly, artists have a purpose on what they have created. The Triple Self-Portrait was made to illustrate a Saturday Evening Post story on Rockwell, headlined “America’s Best Loved Artist Finally Tells His Own Story”, and the interpretation of some of the symbols he uses in his
Rembrandt Harmenszoon Van Rijn Born on July 15, 1606; Rembrandt Van Rijn was a Dutch renaissance, baroque artist and etcher, considered one of the greatest painters and printmakers in European history of art. He died in 1969 as one of the most important painters in Dutch history, his contributions to art came in a period that historians call the “Dutch Golden Age”. Rembrandt’s youthful successes and his later bankruptcy are both reflected in all his portraits, in which his earlier self-portraits portray him in a wealthy setting. He also influenced and inspired the style of many other later artists and spent 20 years teaching nearly every important Dutch painter. The majority of Rembrandt’s portraits and illustrations were scenes from the Bible as well as his knowledge of specific text, his assimilation of classical composition, and observations of Amsterdam’s Jewish population.
In his preface to the novel, Remarque maintains that "a generation of men ... were destroyed by the war" (Remarque, All Quiet Preface). Baumer's closest comrades fall one after the other. The conditions in the German army are to harsh, they have no food, ammunition, moral is low they could not keep fighting. An important episode in the novel is when Baumer is issued a period of leave when he visits his home town. This leave is disastrous for Baumer because he realizes that he can not communicate with the people on the home front because of his military experiences and their limited, or nonexistent, understanding of the war.

This man was left quadriplegic after a diving accident and had been bedridden for almost 30 years. He fought a losing battle with government: he never received permission for euthanasia, and in January 1998, with the help of one of his friends he took poison. Another possible reason for the justifying of euthanasia is the lack of space in hospitals for those who can be cured and saved. It is bitter to own up, but this problem exists in many countries. Those who want to live have no chance to get the proper treatment while those who want to die cannot give their place to them.
She goes home everyday and waits by the window with makeup on wanting someone to knock on her door. When she died, nobody came to her funeral and she was buried along with her name.

The young child was then left in the care of his grandmother Margery Ayscough in Woolsthorpe. Basically treated as an orphan, Isaac did not have a happy childhood. His grandfather James Ayscough was never mentioned by Isaac in later life and the fact that James left nothing to Isaac in his will, made when the boy was ten years old, obviously shows that there was no love lost between the two. There is no doubt that Isaac felt very bitter towards his mother and his step-father Barnabas Smith. When examining his sins at age nineteen, Isaac stated “Threatening my father and mother Smith to burn them and the house over them.” Upon the death of his stepfather in 1653, Newton lived in an extended family consisting of his mother, his grandmother, one half-brother, and two half-sisters.
