Walt Disney
All right. I'm corny. But I think there's just about a-hundred-and-forty-million people in this country that are just as corny as I am.

Walt Disney
Leadership shows judgment, wisdom, personal appeal and proven competence.
Walt Disney
It's because I like you, I don't want to be with you. It's a complicated emotion.
Walt Disney

Walt Disney
I happen to be kind of an inquisitive guy and when I see things I don't like, I start thinking, why do they have to be like this and how can I improve them?
Walt Disney
Here you leave today and enter the world of yesterday, tomorrow, and fantasy.
Walt Disney
Until a character becomes a personality it cannot be believed. Without personality, the character may do funny or interesting things, but unless people are able to identify themselves with the character, its actions will seem unreal. And without personality, a story cannot ring true to the audience.
Walt Disney
The sky has never been the limit. We are our own limits. It's then about breaking our personal limits and outgrowing ourselves to live our best lives. All the adversity I've had in my life, all my troubles and obstacles, have strengthened me.
Walt Disney
My greatest reward is that I have been able to build this wonderful organization.
Walt Disney
Disneyland will never be completed. It will continue to grow as long as there is imagination left in the world.
