The man behind the clown Thomas A. Edison once said, “I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.” Ray Kroc was successful because he kept trying no matter how many people put him down.

unavailability, envisioning the manufacture of the doll in their image, which he probed’ “with aggressive fingers”, and captured rapaciously by his “concious gaze.” (Taylor, 2010) Bellmer’s work encapsulated Surrealism.

Another time the bull looks like Christ occurs when it has the wreath stuck on its horns. O'Connor writ...

The Joyride Rain clouds began to tear themselves away from the jagged peaks of the Koolau range and rays broke through the clouds and beat down on the muddy water of Pearl Bay. Bobby glanced toward them, but his mind was elsewhere. He paced back and forth along the isolated stretch of the narrow beach. Now and then he would kick at loose pebbles along the muddy grey shoreline. For the moment, Bobby was still in his private world, consisting of little more than a strip of mud flat along one
