You'll be a poorer person all your life if you don't know some of the great stories and great poems.
Walt Disney
Image
Every child is born blessed with a vivid imagination.
Walt Disney

When you believe in a thing, believe in it all the way, implicitly and unquestionably.
Walt Disney

The ideal set-up would be the story man, the director, and the layout man, as well as musician, operating as a sort of story unit. They all should be keenly interested in the picture. No one in person should donate to an extent where he would keep the others from entering into the production and freely expressing themselves.
Walt Disney
Image
Here is adventure. Here is romance. Here is mystery. Tropical rivers – silently flowing into the unknown. The unbelievable splendor of exotic flowers … the eerie sound of the jungle … with eyes that are always watching. This is Adventureland.
Walt Disney
Image
Born of necessity, the little fellow literally freed us of immediate worry. He provided the means for expanding our organization to its present dimensions and for extending the medium of cartoon animation toward new entertainment levels. He spelled production liberation for us.

Walt Disney
Image
There are fashions in reading, even in thinking. You don't have to follow them unless you want to. On the other hand, watch out. Don't stick too closely to your favorite subject. That would keep you from adventuring into other fields. It's silly to build a wall around your interests.
Walt Disney
Image
If I haven't thought about six impossible things before breakfast, I consider the day wasted.
Walt Disney
Image
Too many people grow up. That's the real trouble with the world, too many people grow up. They forget. They don't remember what it's like to be 12 years old. They patronize, they treat children as inferiors. Well, I won't do that.
Walt Disney
Image
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
Image
You don't build it for yourself. You know what the people want and you build it for them.
Walt Disney
Image
I just make what I like - warm and human stories, ones about historic characters and events, and about animals. If there is a secret, I guess it's that I never make the pictures too childish, but always try to get in a little satire of adult foibles.
Walt Disney
Image
The important thing is the family. If you can keep the family together - and that's the backbone of our whole business, catering to families - that's what we hope to do.
Walt Disney
Image
Happiness is a state of mind. You can be happy or you can be unhappy.
Walt Disney
Image
Your talent makes you who you are. You should be proud of it.
Walt Disney
Image
Of all the things I've done, the most vital is coordinating those who work with me and aiming their efforts at a certain goal.
Walt Disney
Image
Fantasy, if it's really convincing, can't become dated, for the simple reason that it represents a flight into a dimension that lies beyond the reach of time.
