Ghiberti started creating his first set of doors for the baptistry in Florence in 1403. We know that during this work (which lasted until 1424) Donatello and quite a few other Florentine artists assisted him. Donatello was born in 1386, so when work on the doors was started, Donatello was 17. It is not known, though, at what point Donatello joined the work force.
Donatello's favorite quote is not known specifically, as it would depend on his personal preferences. He was a famous Renaissance artist known for his sculptures, including David and the bronze doors of the Florence Cathedral.

No, Giovanni Bellini did not teach Donatello. In fact, Bellini was born in 1430, while Donatello was born earlier, around 1386, and was already an established sculptor by the time Bellini gained prominence as a painter. Donatello is often considered a pioneer of Renaissance sculpture, whereas Bellini became a leading figure in Venetian painting. Their timelines and artistic focuses were distinct, so any direct mentorship or teaching relationship did not occur.

The Statue of Donatello, also known as "David," was created by the Italian Renaissance sculptor Donatello himself. It was completed around 1440 and is considered one of the first freestanding nude sculptures since antiquity. The statue depicts the biblical hero David after his victory over Goliath and showcases Donatello's mastery of form and emotion. It is housed in the Museo Nazionale del Bargello in Florence, Italy.
