More quotes by Walt Disney
My business is making people, especially children, happy.
Walt Disney
You think the only people who are people, are the people who look and think like you. But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger, you'll learn things you never knew you never knew.
Walt Disney
A prayer, it seems to me, implies a promise as well as a request at the highest level, prayer not only is a supplication for strength and guidance, but also becomes an affirmation of life and thus a reverent praise of God.
Walt Disney
I always like to look on the optimistic side of life, but I am realistic enough to know that life is a complex matter. With the laugh comes the tears and in developing motion pictures or television shows, you must combine all the facts of life - drama, pathos and humor.
Walt Disney
Main Street, U.S.A. is America at the turn of the century--the crossroads of an era. The gas lamps and the electric lamp--the horse-drawn car and auto car. Main Street is everyone's hometown- the heart line of America.
Walt Disney
It's silly to build a wall around your interests.
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
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
In learning the art of storytelling by animation, I have discovered that language has an anatomy.
Walt Disney
Adults are only kids grown up
Walt Disney
Well it took many years. I started with many ideas, threw them away, started all over again. And eventually it evolved into what you see today at Disneyland
Walt Disney
I am not interested in what a man can't do. I want to know what he CAN do.
Walt Disney
Togetherness, for me, means teamwork. It makes us reflect how completely dependent we are upon one another in our social and commercial life. The more diversified our labors and interests have become in the modern world, the more surely need to integrate our efforts to justify our individual selves and our civilization.
Walt Disney
Disneyland is a work of love. We didn't go into Disneyland just with the idea of making money.
Walt Disney
You reach a point where you don't work for money.
Walt Disney
I am in no sense of the word a great artist, not even a great animator I have always had men working for me whose skills were greater than my own. I am an idea man.
Walt Disney
It's always a challenge bringing a great story classic to the screen. Giving visual form to the characters and places that have only existed in the imagination. But it's the kind of challenge we enjoy.
Walt Disney
Everyone has to contribute, or they become laborers.
Walt Disney
Well I come from a land, from a far away place, where the caravan camels roam. They will cut of your ear if they don't like your face, it's babaric, but hey, it's home.
Walt Disney
When I'm dead I don't want a funeral. I want people to remember me alive.
Walt Disney
