More quotes by Walt Disney

Walt Disney
If I depended on critics and children to make a living I'd grow broke.
Walt Disney
I would rather entertain and hope that people learned something than educate people and hope they were entertained.
Walt Disney
Perhaps Bach and Beethoven are strange bedfellows for Mickey Mouse, but it's all been a lot of fun.
Walt Disney
Today, we are shapers of the world of tomorrow. That is plain truth. There is no way we can duck the responsibility, and there is no reason why we should.
Walt Disney
its fun to do the unexpected.
Walt Disney
It has that thing - the imagination, and the feeling of happy excitement- I knew when I was a kid.
Walt Disney

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

Walt Disney
To some people, I am a kind of Merlin who takes lots of crazy chances, but rarely makes mistakes.
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 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
Around here, however, we don't look backwards for very long.
Walt Disney
Let your heart guide you...it whispers so listen closely.
Walt Disney
Until a character becomes a personality it cannot be believed. Without personality, the character may do funny or interesting things, but unless people are able to identify themselves with the character, its actions will seem unreal. And without personality, a story cannot ring true to the audience.
Walt Disney
Recession doesn't deserve the right to exist. There are just too many things to be done in science and engineering to be bogged down by temporary economic dislocations.
Walt Disney
Tomorrow will be better for as long as America keeps alive the ideals of freedom and a better life.
Walt Disney
Just remember, it all started with a mouse.
Walt Disney
Of all of our inventions for mass communication, pictures still speak the most universally understood language.
Walt Disney
