More quotes by Walt Disney
I'm doing this because I want to do it better.
Walt Disney
Disneyland is a work of love. We didn't go into Disneyland just with the idea of making money.
Walt Disney
Why be a governor or senator when you can be king of Disneyland?
Walt Disney
The most exciting and, by far, the most important part of our Florida project, in fact, the heart of everything well be doing in Disney World, will be our experimental prototype city of tomorrow. We call it EPCOT.
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
It's something that will never be finished. Something that I can keep developing...and adding to.
Walt Disney
The difference in winning & losing is most often, not quitting.
Walt Disney
My business is making people, especially children, happy.
Walt Disney
When we opened Disneyland, a lot of people got the impressions that it was a get-rich-quick thing, but they didn't realize that behind Disneyland was this great organization that I built here at the Studio, and they all got into it and we were doing it because we loved to do it.
Walt Disney
[Mickey Mouse] He popped out of my mind onto a drawing pad 20 years ago on a train ride from Manhattan to Hollywood at a time when business fortunes of my brother Roy and myself were at lowest ebb and disaster seemed right around the corner.
Walt Disney
To be successful you must be unique, you must be so different that if people want what you have, they must come to you to get it.
Walt Disney
People often ask me if I know the secret of success and if I could tell others how to make their dreams come true. My answer is, you do it by working.
Walt Disney
I think of a child's mind as a blank book. During the first years of his life, much will be written on the pages. The quality of that writing will affect his life profoundly.
Walt Disney
You know, the only way I've found to make these pictures is with animators. You can't seem to do it with accountants and bookkeepers.
Walt Disney
If you can dream it, you can do it. Always remember that this whole thing was started with a dream and a mouse.
Walt Disney
Never get bored or cynical. Yesterday is a thing of the past.
Walt Disney
People look at you and me to see what they are supposed to be. And, if we don't disappoint them, maybe, just maybe, they won't disappoint us.
Walt Disney
Biggest problem? Well, I'd say it's been my biggest problem all my life. MONEY. It takes a lot of money to make these dreams come true. From the very start it was a problem. Getting the money to open Disneyland. About seventeen million it took. And we had everything mortgaged including my personal insurance.
Walt Disney
We did it Disneyland, in the knowledge that most of the people I talked to thought it would be a financial disaster - closed and forgotten within the first year.
Walt Disney
The fun is in always building something. After it's built, you play with it awhile and then you're through. You see, we never do the same thing twice around here. We're always opening up new doors.
Walt Disney
