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

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

If watching is all you're going to do, then you're going to watch your life go by without you.
Walt Disney

Art was always a means to an end with me. You get an idea, and you just can't wait. Once you've started, then you're in there with the punches flying. There's plenty of trouble, but you can handle it. You can't back out. It gets you down once in a while, but it's exciting. Our whole business is exciting.

When we consider a project, we really study it-not just the surface idea, but everything about it. And when we go into that new project, we believe in it all the way. We have confidence in our ability to do it right. And we work hard to do the best possible job.
Walt Disney
Image
I only hope that we don't lose sight of one thing - that it was all started by a mouse.
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
Money doesn't excite me - my ideas excite me.
Walt Disney

The more you like yourself, the less you are like anyone else, which makes you unique.

Why would I want to be president? I'm the king of Disneyland.
Walt Disney
Image
There is nothing wrong with good schmaltz, nothing wrong with good heart... The critics think I'm kind of corny. Well, I am corny. As long as people respond to it, I'm okay.
Walt Disney

I thank God and America for the right to live and raise my family under the flag of tolerance, democracy and freedom.
Walt Disney

Sheer animated fantasy is still my first and deepest production impulse.
Walt Disney

I definitely feel that we cannot do the fantastic things based on the real, unless we first know the real.

It is good to have a failure while you're young because it teaches you so much. For one thing it makes you aware that such a thing can happen to anybody, and once you've lived through the worst, you're never quite as vulnerable afterward.
