Quote

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.

All of our dreams can come true...
Walt Disney

I think a good study of music would be indispensable to the animators - a realization on their part of how primitive music is, how natural it is for people to want to go to music - a study of rhythm, the dance - the various rhythms enter into our lives every day.
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

We love to entertain kings and queens, but at Disneyland, everyone is a V.I.P.
Walt Disney

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.

It's a mistake not to give people a chance to learn to depend on themselves while they are young.
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 just want to leave you with this thought, that it's just been sort of a dress rehearsal, and we're just getting started. So if any of you start resting on your laurels, I mean just forget it, because...we are just getting started.
Walt Disney
Image
I can never stand still. I must explore and experiment. I am never satisfied with my work. I resent the limitations of my own imagination.
Walt Disney
Image
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
When I'm dead I don't want a funeral. I want people to remember me alive.
Walt Disney
Image
Everyone falls down. Getting back up is how you learn how to walk.
Walt Disney
Image
I believe in being a motivator.
Walt Disney
Image
You reach a point where you don't work for money.
Walt Disney
Image
People often ask me if I know the secret of success and if I could tell others how to make their dreams come true. My answer is, you do it by working.
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

We dance, we kiss, we schmooze, we carry on, we go home happy. What do you say? Come on.
Walt Disney

We are not influenced by the techniques or fashions of any other company.
Walt Disney
Image
I don't believe in playing down to children, either in life or in motion pictures. I didn't treat my own youngsters like fragile flowers, and I think no parent should.
Walt Disney

Those who are clever, who have a brain, never understand anything.
