More quotes by Walt Disney
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
Do not be fooled by its commonplace appearance. Like so many things, it is not what outside, but what is inside that counts.
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
Mickey Mouse is, to me, a symbol of independence. He was a means to an end.
Walt Disney
Money doesn't excite me - my ideas excite me.
Walt Disney
The past can hurt. But the way I see it, you can either run from it, or learn from it.
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
The sky has never been the limit. We are our own limits. It's then about breaking our personal limits and outgrowing ourselves to live our best lives. All the adversity I've had in my life, all my troubles and obstacles, have strengthened me.
Walt Disney
Many of the things that seem impossible now will become realities tomorrow.
Walt Disney
You'll be a poorer person all your life if you don't know some of the great stories and great poems.
Walt Disney
Women are the best judges of anything we turn out. Their taste is very important. They are the theatergoers they are the ones who drag the men in. If the women like it, to heck with the men.
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
Faith I have, in myself, in humanity, in the worthwhileness of the pursuits in entertainment for the masses. But wide awake, not blind faith, moves me. My operations are based on experience, thoughtful observation and warm fellowship with my neighbors at home and around the world.
Walt Disney
I never intended to make art.
Walt Disney
For every laugh, there should be a tear.
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
Laughter is timeless. Imagination has no age. And dreams are forever.
Walt Disney
I have been up against tough competition all my life. I wouldn't know how to get along without it.
Walt Disney
A good concert, if you're kind of relaxed, it can do something to you. It's sort of an emotional break you get by listening to music.
Walt Disney
I started, actually, to make my first animated cartoon in 1920. Of course, they were very crude things then and I used sort of little puppet things.
Walt Disney
