More quotes by 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
My fun is working on a project and solving the problems.
Walt Disney
It's a mistake not to give people a chance to learn to depend on themselves while they are young.
Walt Disney
I try to build a full personality for each of our cartoon characters - to make them personalities.
Walt Disney
It is my wish to delight all members of the family, young and old, parent and child.
Walt Disney
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
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 believe that laughter is our greatest export
Walt Disney
When you're curious, you find lots of interesting things to do.
Walt Disney
We're not trying to entertain the critics ... I'll take my chances with the public.
Walt Disney
I take great pride in the artistic development of cartoons. Our characters are made to go through emotions.
Walt Disney
Forever is a long long time and time has a way of changing things.
Walt Disney
Here in Florida, we have something special we never enjoyed at Disneyland: the blessing of size. There's enough land here to hold all of the ideas and plans we can possibly imagine.
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
Disneyland is like Alice stepping through the Looking Glass to step through the portals of Disneyland will be like entering another world.
Walt Disney
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
A person should set his goals as early as he can and devote all his energy and talent to getting there. With enough effort, he may achieve it. Or he may find something that is even more rewarding. But in the end, no matter what the outcome, he will know he has been alive.
Walt Disney
I think of a child's mind as a blank book. During the first years of his life, much will be written on the pages. The quality of that writing will affect his life profoundly.
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.
Walt Disney
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.
Walt Disney
