More quotes by Walt Disney
We love to entertain kings and queens, but at Disneyland, everyone is a V.I.P.
Walt Disney
There is more treasure in books than in all the pirates' loot on Treasure Island...
Walt Disney
I am a patient listener, but opinionated to the point of stubbornness when my mind is made up.
Walt Disney
Disneyland will never be completed. It will continue to grow as long as there is imagination left in the world.
Walt Disney
Happiness is a state of mind.
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
Sometimes I think of myself as a little bee. I go from one area of the studio to another and gather pollen and sort of stimulate everybody. I guess that’s the job I do.
Walt Disney
Whatever we accomplish is due to the combined effort.
Walt Disney
Always, as you travel, assimilate the sounds and sights of the world.
Walt Disney
There's really no secret about our approach. We keep moving forward - opening up new doors and doing new things - because we're curious. And curiosity keeps leading us down new paths. We're always exploring and experimenting. We call it Imagineering - the blending of creative and imagination with technical know-how.
Walt Disney
If we didn't have deadlines, we'd stagnate.
Walt Disney
I believe in being an innovator.
Walt Disney
Do what you do so well that they will want to see it again and bring their friends.
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
Part of the Disney success is our ability to create a believable world of dreams that appeals to all age groups. The kind of entertainment we create is meant to appeal to every member of the family.
Walt Disney
Animation is different from other parts. Its language is the language of caricature.
Walt Disney
Believe in your dreams, no matter how impossible they seem.
Walt Disney
Animation can explain whatever the mind of man can conceive. This facility makes it the most versatile and explicit means of communication yet devised for quick mass appreciation.
Walt Disney
Perhaps Bach and Beethoven are strange bedfellows for Mickey Mouse, but it's all been a lot of fun.
Walt Disney
Let your heart guide you...it whispers so listen closely.
Walt Disney
