Line as Emotion

Aside from the obvious comment that Donald is angry, line has a lot to do with evoking such emotion. Playing off of real human emotion, cartoons are able to exaggerate emotions such as "anger" by lowering eyebrows and using diagonal lines to add a sharpness to it. Donald's sharp hair and tail add to the feeling of anger, all of which is accomplished with line.
