More quotes by Walt Disney
We felt that the public, and especially the children, like animals that are cute and little. I think we are rather indebted to Charlie Chaplin for the idea. We wanted something appealing, and we thought of a tiny bit of a mouse that would have something of the wistfulness of Chaplin - a little fellow trying to do the best he could.
Walt Disney
Moving pictures can be and will be new and fresh and exciting as long as there are ideas and talent in the world.
Walt Disney
We like to have a point of view in our stories, not an obvious moral, but a worthwhile theme. ... All we are trying to do is give the public good entertainment. That is all they want.
Walt Disney
We seem to know when to 'tap the heart.' Others have hit the intellect. We can hit them in all emotional way. Those who appeal to the intellect only appeal to a very limited group. The real thing behind this is: we are in the motion picture business, only we are drawing them instead of photographing them.
Walt Disney
I don't have depressed moods. I'm happy, just very, very happy.
Walt Disney
Actually, if you could see close in my eyes, the American flag is waving in both of them and up my spine is growing this red, white and blue stripe.
Walt Disney
Mickey Mouse is, to me, a symbol of independence. He was a means to an end.
Walt Disney
Disneyland is a show.
Walt Disney
Here is the world of imagination, hopes, and dreams. In this timeless land of enchantment, the age of chivalry, magic and make-believe are reborn - and fairy tales come true. Fantasyland is dedicated to the young-in-heart, to those who that when you wish upon a star, your dreams come true.
Walt Disney
I've always been bored with just making money. I've wanted to do things I wanted to build things, to get something going. What money meant to me was that I was able to get money to do that for me.
Walt Disney
It seems to me shallow and arrogant for any man in these times to claim he is completely self-made, that he owes all his success to his own unaided efforts. Many hands and hearts and minds generally contribute to anyone's notable achievements.
Walt Disney
Do a good job. You don't have to worry about the money it will take care of itself. Just do your best work - then try to trump it.
Walt Disney
Mickey was simply a little personality assigned to the purposes of laughter.
Walt Disney
Those who are clever, who have a brain, never understand anything.
Walt Disney
In my view, wholesome pleasure, sport, and recreation are as vital to this nation as productive work and should have a large share in the national budget.
Walt Disney
What seems real to the mind can be as important as any material fact. We live by the spirit and the imagination as well as by our senses. Cartoon animation can give fantasy the same reality as those things we can touch and see and hear.
Walt Disney
Crowded classrooms and half-day sessions are a tragic waste of our greatest national resource - the minds of our children.
Walt Disney
After the rain, the sun will reappear. There is life. After the pain, the joy will still be here.
Walt Disney
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Walt Disney
Your talent makes you who you are. You should be proud of it.
Walt Disney
