Animation is different from other parts. Its language is the language of caricature. Our most difficult job was to develop the cartoon's unnatural but seemingly natural anatomy for humans and animals.

I have no use for people who throw their weight around as celebrities, or for those who fawn over you just because you are famous.

Movies can and do have tremendous influence in shaping young lives.
Walt Disney
Image
Give the public everything you can give them, keep the place as clean as you can keep it, keep it friendly.
Walt Disney
Image
I've always had a feeling that any time you can experiment, you ought to do it. Because you never know what will happen.
Walt Disney

Animation offers a medium of story telling and visual entertainment which can bring pleasure and information to people of all ages everywhere in the world.

I think what I want Disneyland to be most of all is a happy place - a place where adults and children can experience together some of the wonders of life, of adventure, and feel better because of it.

If it can be dreamed, it can be done.
Walt Disney
Image
In my view, wholesome pleasure, sport, and recreation are as vital to this nation as productive work and should have a large share in the national budget.
Walt Disney
Image
I just make what I like - warm and human stories, ones about historic characters and events, and about animals. If there is a secret, I guess it's that I never make the pictures too childish, but always try to get in a little satire of adult foibles.
Walt Disney
Image
It is good to have a failure while you're young because it teaches you so much. For one thing it makes you aware that such a thing can happen to anybody, and once you've lived through the worst, you're never quite as vulnerable afterward.
Walt Disney
Image
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
Image
The greatest moments in life are not concerned with selfish achievements, but rather with the things we do for others
Walt Disney

There is more treasure in books than in all the pirates' loot on Treasure Island...
Walt Disney
Image
The more you are like yourself, the less you are like anyone else which makes you unique. The problem with most people is that they spend their lives trying to emulate others and so we have lots of copies but few originals.
Walt Disney
Image
I happen to be kind of an inquisitive guy and when I see things I don't like, I start thinking, why do they have to be like this and how can I improve them?
Walt Disney
Image
Speaking for the one field which I feel definitely qualified to comment on, I fully believe the animated picture will emerge as one of the greatest mediums, not only of entertainment but also of education.
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

Disneyland will always be building and growing and adding new things... new ways of having fun, of learning things, and sharing the many exciting adventures which may be experienced here in the company of family and friends.
Walt Disney
Image
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.
