More quotes by Walt Disney

Image
I am a patient listener, but opinionated to the point of stubbornness when my mind is made up.
Walt Disney
Image
Disneyland will never be completed. It will continue to grow as long as there is imagination left in the world.
Walt Disney
Image
When we do fantasy, we must not lose sight of reality.
Walt Disney
Image
No one person can take credit for the success of a motion picture. It's strictly a team effort. From the time the story is written to the time the final release print comes off the printer, hundreds of people are involved - each one doing a job - each job contributing to the final product.
Walt Disney
Image
Until a character becomes a personality it cannot be believed.
Walt Disney
Image
We did it Disneyland, in the knowledge that most of the people I talked to thought it would be a financial disaster - closed and forgotten within the first year.
Walt Disney
Image
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
Image
People look at you and me to see what they are supposed to be. And, if we don't disappoint them, maybe, just maybe, they won't disappoint us.
Walt Disney
Image
Today, we are shapers of the world of tomorrow. That is plain truth. There is no way we can duck the responsibility, and there is no reason why we should.
Walt Disney
Image
I resent the limitations of my own imagination.
Walt Disney
Image
Whether you say you can't or you can, you're right.
Walt Disney
Image
The era we are living in today is a dream of coming true.
Walt Disney
Image
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
Image
I first saw the site for Disneyland back in 1953, In those days it was all flat land - no rivers, no mountains, no castles or rocket ships - just orange groves, and a few acres of walnut trees.
Walt Disney
Image
We are not influenced by the techniques or fashions of any other company.
Walt Disney
Image
At first the cartoon medium was just a novelty, but it never really began to hit until we had more than tricks... until we developed personalities. We had to get beyond getting a laugh. They may roll in the aisles, but that doesn't mean you have a great picture. You have pathos in the thing.
Walt Disney
Image
We allow no geniuses around our Studio.
Walt Disney
Image
Over at our place, we’re sure of just one thing: everybody in the world was once a child. So in planning a new picture, we don’t think of grown-ups, and we don’t think of children. But just of that fine, clean, unspoiled spot down deep in every one of us, that maybe the world has made us forget.
Walt Disney
Image
It's a mistake not to give people a chance to learn to depend on themselves while they are young.
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.
