First of all, Miller
Miller is a famous French writer in the19th century. Born in a peasant family, he studied painting with others when he was young. He left his teacher because he was dissatisfied with his flashy artistic style. Later, he made a living by painting nude pictures in Paris. Gradually, he got tired of this art, but paintings with other themes could not be sold. Therefore, he once fell into the abyss of poverty, distress and despair.
Forced by life, he had to leave Paris to live in the country. In the countryside, he still failed to get rid of poverty, but the beautiful nature, simple farmers and farm life aroused the painter's creative passion. He endured all difficulties and persisted in his creation, resulting in many famous works, such as The Sower.
Second, Jack London.
Jack London was born in a poor family, but he was ambitious, designed a great future for himself, became a great writer, and transformed society with a pen. In order to become a writer, he made up lessons in middle school for one year, and then he was admitted to the University of California. But because of the difficulty in paying tuition, he dropped out of school after studying for half a year. Dropping out of school didn't shake his determination to become a writer. He changed his mind, took the society as a learning classroom and studied harder.
The works of Darwin, Marx and Nietzsche taught him to think. Shakespeare, Goethe, Balzac and other works taught him to write. He began to write a manuscript, but he was rejected again and again. But he was not discouraged. If life is difficult, you can live by pawning and squeeze time to write. Write at night if there is not enough time during the day; Take notes, index and copy cards diligently. Finally, I published my first novel "To the Hunter" on 1890. Later, he became a great writer with many masterpieces.
Third, nicolo Paganini.
Nicolo Paganini, an Italian violinist and composer, is called "the violinist trained in piano solo". His artistic path is bumpy. He was born in a small businessman's family. It is said that he has been in prison for 20 years for political crimes. But even in prison, he never lost heart, but insisted on studying in prison.
At the window of the prison, he practiced hard with a violin with only one string left. After decades, he finally reached a superb position in playing skills. His creation and performance are unrestrained and full of passion, which has a great influence on contemporary romantic composers.
Fourth, Helen Keller
Helen Keller, an American blind and deaf woman writer and educator, lost her sight and hearing because of illness at the age of one and a half, which is unimaginable and unbearable pain for ordinary people.
