With a Temper Always on the Rise
Full Name: Donald
Fauntleroy Duck
Besides in my opinion, being the
greatest
cartoon character ever, Donald is the one in the little blue suit that
is more often in a rage than not. His personality
shows through actions. He gives new meaning to
the phrase: "Actions speak louder than words." His lines are few
and almost indecipherable, forcing his actions to speak the volume of his
parts. His personality makes his character almost unpredictable
and yet so predictable. One can almost guarantee
a rise in temper, but why? We'll just have
to wait and see.

Final Word, Not a Final Appearance Donald Duck is quite well known
around the world, and is predicted to be remembered long after many of
today's live actors. Why? Because he is the perfect epitome of so many
human characteristics: pest or not, he is just right. As Helen G Thompson
put it in her 1935 Stage article, "I wouldn't change him - not one little
cross-eyed quack." She added a piece of fine poetry:

reprise of The Merrymakers and said "That man sounds like a duck" Later
Nash was in an audition and Walt Disney heard his impression of a duck,
and said "There's our talking duck!" Walt Disney and Nash worked together
to build Donald's voice adding things like laughter. Clarence "Ducky" Nash
provided the voice of Donald Duck until 1985, when he died of leukemia.

me a couple of years before. He first appeared in a bit in our The Wise
Little Hen, and proceeded to steal the picture. He squawked and strutted
his way into the production until he was practically the star of the film.
He was a character we simply couldn't keep down. And the public took him
to heart completely after his second appearance in Orphan's Benefit. His
towering rages, his impotence in the face of obstacles, his protest in
the face of injustice, as he sees it, even though he brings disaster upon
himself - have kept him an audience favorite from that day to this.
