John Lasseter
You can achieve all the things you want to do, but it's much better to do it with loved ones around you family and friends, people that you care about that can help you on the way and can celebrate you, and you can enjoy the journey.
John Lasseter
'Bambi' is an amazing film, and when you watch it today, it's just as beautiful. It's timeless. It's just as beautiful today as it was back then.
John Lasseter
Every single Pixar film, at one time or another, has been the worst movie ever put on film. But we know. We trust our process. We don't get scared and say, 'Oh, no, this film isn't working.'
John Lasseter
I believe in research you cannot do enough research believability comes out of what's real.
John Lasseter
One of the fun things about play is making up stories.
John Lasseter
