Just make sure you never do less than your best
Walt Disney

If I depended on critics and children to make a living I'd grow broke.

What seems real to the mind can be as important as any material fact. We live by the spirit and the imagination as well as by our senses. Cartoon animation can give fantasy the same reality as those things we can touch and see and hear.

Walt Disney

My imagination creates my reality.
Walt Disney
Image
We seem to know when to 'tap the heart.' Others have hit the intellect. We can hit them in all emotional way. Those who appeal to the intellect only appeal to a very limited group. The real thing behind this is: we are in the motion picture business, only we are drawing them instead of photographing them.
Walt Disney
Image
I am interested in entertaining people, in bringing pleasure, particularly laughter, to others, rather than being concerned with expressing myself with obscure creative impressions.

You reach a point where you don't work for money.

I am a patient listener, but opinionated to the point of stubbornness when my mind is made up.
