Walt Disney
I definitely feel that we cannot do the fantastic things based on the real, unless we first know the real.
Walt Disney
We allow no geniuses around our Studio.
Walt Disney
She believed in dreams, all right, but she also believed in doing something about them. When Prince Charming didn't come along, she went over to the palace and got him.
Walt Disney
If you act like an adult when you're a kid you can afford to act like a kid the rest of your life.
Walt Disney
