More quotes by Walt Disney
We grew to our present size almost against ourselves. It was not a deliberately planned commercial venture in the sense that I sat down and said that we were going to make ourselves into a huge financial octopus. We evolved by necessity. We did not sit down and say to ourselves, 'How can we make a big pile of dough?' It just happened.
Walt Disney
It's silly to build a wall around your interests.
Walt Disney
People still think of me as a cartoonist, but the only thing I lift a pen or pencil for these days is to sign a contract, a check, or an autograph.
Walt Disney
When I'm dead I don't want a funeral. I want people to remember me alive.
Walt Disney
A prayer, it seems to me, implies a promise as well as a request at the highest level, prayer not only is a supplication for strength and guidance, but also becomes an affirmation of life and thus a reverent praise of God.
Walt Disney
Now when we opened Disneyland, outer space was Buck Rogers.
Walt Disney

Walt Disney
I don't think there's a thing I own that I will ever get the benefit of except through doing things with it.
Walt Disney
If we didn't have deadlines, we'd stagnate.
Walt Disney
We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious... and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.
Walt Disney

Walt Disney

Walt Disney
Disneyland is often called a magic kingdom because it combines fantasy and history, adventure and learning, together with every variety of recreation and fun designed to appeal to everyone.
Walt Disney
The fun is in always building something. After it's built, you play with it awhile and then you're through. You see, we never do the same thing twice around here. We're always opening up new doors.
Walt Disney
When we opened Disneyland, a lot of people got the impressions that it was a get-rich-quick thing, but they didn't realize that behind Disneyland was this great organization that I built here at the Studio, and they all got into it and we were doing it because we loved to do it.
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
Of all the things I've done, the most vital is coordinating those who work with me and aiming their efforts at a certain goal.
Walt Disney
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
Or heritage and ideals, our code and standards - the things we live by and teach our children - are preserved or diminished by how freely we exchange ideas and feelings.
