He was responsible\u003cbr\u003efor making many of those changes occur. His inventions created and\u003cbr\u003econtributed to modern night lights, movies, telephones, records and\u003cbr\u003eCDs. Edison was truly a genius.\u003cbr\u003eEdison is most famous for his development of the first electric\u003cbr\u003elight bulb. When Edison was born, electricity had not been developed.\u003cbr\u003eBy the time he died, entire cities were lit by electricity. Much of the\u003cbr\u003ecredit for electricity goes to Edison.\u003cbr\u003eSome of his inventions were improvements on other inventions,\u003cbr\u003elike the telephone. Some of his inventions he deliberately tried to\u003cbr\u003einvent, like the light bulb and the movie projector. But some\u003cbr\u003einventions he stumbled upon, like the phonograph. Of all his\u003cbr\u003einventions, Edison was most proud of the phonograph.\u003cbr\u003e- 5 -\u003cbr\u003eEdison invented and improved upon things that transformed\u003cbr\u003eour world. Some things he invented by himself. Some things he\u003cbr\u003einvented with other people. Just about all his inventions are things we\u003cbr\u003estill use in some form today. Throughout his life, Edison tried to\u003cbr\u003einvent things that everyone could use.\u003cbr\u003eEdison created the world's first \"invention factory\". He and his\u003cbr\u003epartners invented, built and shipped the product - all in the same\u003cbr\u003ecomplex. This was a new way to do business. Today many businesses\u003cbr\u003ehave copied Edison's invention factory design.\u003cbr\u003eA business friend once asked Edison about the secret to his success.\u003cbr\u003eEdison replied, \"Genius is hard work, stick-to-itiveness, and common\u003cbr\u003esense\". But his \"common sense\" was very uncommon. More patents\u003cbr\u003ewere issued to Edison than have been issued to any other single\u003cbr\u003eperson in U.S. history: 1,093.\u003cbr\u003e- 6 -\u003cbr\u003eBeethoven was born on 16th, December, 1770 in Bonn of Germany.\u003cbr\u003eHis father was a singer in local palace choir. Beethoven's father was a\u003cbr\u003every common person and he was addicted to gambling. However, his\u003cbr\u003emother was a fairly kind-hearted and gentle female. She married an\u003cbr\u003eassistant as her first marriage and married to Beethoven's father\u003cbr\u003ewhen her ex-husband died.\u003cbr\u003eBeethoven didn't have access to go to school for the reason that his\u003cbr\u003efamily was very poor. Nevertheless, he had a special feeling of music\u003cbr\u003ewhen he was very young. His father wanted to make use of his\u003cbr\u003epotential to make a big fortune. As a result, Beethoven had to practice\u003cbr\u003eplaying clavicorn and violin day and night under his father's pressure.\u003cbr\u003eBeethoven had a performance on a stage for the first time when he\u003cbr\u003ewas only seven years old and he made a huge success. Some famous\u003cbr\u003emusicians considered him as the second Mozart. Beethoven learned\u003cbr\u003ehow to compose music from Nifo and published his first work named\u003cbr\u003eConcerto in A minor when he was 11. He went to Vienna to learn how\u003cbr\u003eto compose music from Mozart and Haydn.\u003cbr\u003eIt seems that he would have a fairly bright future when Beethoven\u003cbr\u003ereceived the first success in 1800. Nevertheless, he was troubled with\u003cbr\u003ea terrible matter for years at that time. He found that he has became a\u003cbr\u003edeaf person. There couldn't be anything more terrible than that for a\u003cbr\u003emusician. He sank into a blue mood for a long time as a consequence.\u003cbr\u003eBeethoven has an enthusiastic heart all the time. But his enthusiasm\u003cbr\u003ewas often unfortunate. He often tolerated both hope and enthusiasm,\u003cbr\u003edisappointment and resistance. There was no doubt that all of these\u003cbr\u003eemotions had become his unique source of creation. He fell in love\u003cbr\u003ewith Julia in 1801 and composed a music named Moonlight for her\u003cbr\u003e- 7 -\u003cbr\u003especifically. To his disappointed, she couldn't understand his noble\u003cbr\u003esoul and refused him. Beethoven was upset and despairing for that\u003cbr\u003eand married a comte before long. It was the most hopeless moment\u003cbr\u003efor him and once a time, he wrote down a paper of posthumous\u003cbr\u003epapers.\u003cbr\u003eHe came to life in 1803 and composed some bright and warm music\u003cbr\u003esuch as The Second Symphonies. From then on, several more\u003cbr\u003ebeautiful and marvelous music were produced.
