I'm not the perfectionist anymore. It's my staff. They're the ones always insisting on doing something better and better.

Now when we opened Disneyland, outer space was Buck Rogers.

Your talent makes you who you are. You should be proud of 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
Image
When you're working on a project, make sure at least one person knows what they are doing.
Walt Disney

I'm doing this because I want to do it better.

Tomorrow can be a wonderful age.

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.

Just make sure you never do less than your best
Walt Disney

It's something that will never be finished. Something that I can keep developing...and adding to.

The greatest moments in life are not concerned with selfish achievements, but rather with the things we do for others

Adults are interested if you don't play down to the little 2 or 3 year olds or talk down. I don't believe in talking down to children. I don't believe in talking down to any certain segment. I like to kind of just talk in a general way to the audience. Children are always reaching.

I have never been interested in personal gain or profit. This business and this studio have been my entire life.
Walt Disney
Image
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
Image
It seems to me shallow and arrogant for any man in these times to claim he is completely self-made, that he owes all his success to his own unaided efforts. Many hands and hearts and minds generally contribute to anyone's notable achievements.
Walt Disney
Image
I can never stand still. I must explore and experiment.
Walt Disney

Disneyland really began when my two daughters were very young. Saturday was always Daddy's Day and I would take them to the merry-go-round, and sit on a bench eating peanuts while they rode. And sitting there alone, I felt there should be something built, some kind of family park where parents and children could have fun together.

You reach a point where you don't work for money.

The inclination of my life...has been to do things & make things which will give pleasure to people in new and amazing ways.
Walt Disney

What seems real to the mind can be as important as any material fact. We live by the spirit and the imagination as well as by our senses. Cartoon animation can give fantasy the same reality as those things we can touch and see and hear.

If I haven't thought about six impossible things before breakfast, I consider the day wasted.
