More quotes by Walt Disney

Image
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

Don't tell me about the problems - I make the problems.
Walt Disney
Image
Just remember, it all started with a mouse.
Walt Disney
Image
Fantasy, if it's really convincing, can't become dated, for the simple reason that it represents a flight into a dimension that lies beyond the reach of time.
Walt Disney
Image
You must not let anyone define your limits because of where you come from. Your only limit is your soul.
Walt Disney
Image
Children are people, and they should have to reach to learn about things, to understand things, just as adults have to reach if they want to grow in mental stature.

Worry is a waste of imagination.

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

In most instances, the driving force behind the action is the mood, the personality, the attitude of the character - or all three. Therefore, the mind is the pilot. We think of things before the body does them.
Walt Disney
Image
To me, today, at age sixty-one, all prayer, by the humble or highly placed, has one thing in common: supplication for strength and inspiration to carry on the best human impulses which should bind us together for a better world.
Walt Disney
Image
Dream, diversify-and never miss an angle.
Walt Disney
Image
You know, the only way I've found to make these pictures is with animators. You can't seem to do it with accountants and bookkeepers.

If anybody gets highbrow around the studio, out he goes.
Walt Disney
Image
I have never been interested in personal gain or profit. This business and this studio have been my entire life.
Walt Disney
Image
I'm just corny enough to like to have a story hit me over the heart.
Walt Disney
Image
Today we are shapers of the world of tomorrow.
Walt Disney
Image
The magic is as wide as a smile and as narrow as a wink, loud as laughter and quiet as a tear, tall as a tale and deep as emotion. So strong, it can lift the spirit. So gentle, it can touch the heart. It is the magic that begins the happily ever after.
Walt Disney

Nearly everybody gets twitterpated in the springtime. [. . . ] You begin to get weak in the knees. Your head's in a whirl. And then you feel light as a feather, and before you know it, you're walking on air. And then you know what? You're knocked for a loop, and you completely lose your head!
Walt Disney
Image
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
Image
In my work I try to reach and speak to that innocence, showing it the fun and joy of living showing it that laughter is healthy showing it that the human species, although happily ridiculous at times, is still reaching for the stars.
Walt Disney
