Money Doesn't Excite Me - My Ideas Excite Me.

To Captivate Our Varied And Worldwide Audience Of All Ages, The Nature And Treatment Of The Fairy Tale, The Legend, The Myth Have To Be Elementary, Simple. Good And Evil, The Antagonists Of All Great Drama In Some Guise, Must Be Believably Personalized. The Moral Ideals Common To All Humanity Must Be Upheld. The Victories Must Not Be Too Easy. Strife To Test Valor Is Still And Will Always Be The Basic Ingredient Of The Animated Tale, As Of All Screen Entertainments.

My Business Is Making People, Especially Children, Happy.

I Know Different Ways Of Looking At Things. I Have My Stockholders, And I Feel A Very Keen Responsibility To The Shareholders, But I Feel That The Main Responsibility I Have To Them Is To Have The Stock Appreciate. And You Only Have It Appreciate By Reinvesting As Much As You Can Back In The Business. And That's What We've Done... And That Has Been My Philosophy On Running The Business.

Childishness? I Think It's The Equivalent Of Never Losing Your Sense Of Humor. I Mean, Yes There's A Certain Something That You Retain. It's The Equivalent Of Not Getting So Stuffy That You Can't Laugh At Others.

I Believe In Being An Innovator.

All Of Our Dreams Can Come True...

People Still Think Of Me As A Cartoonist, But The Only Thing I Lift A Pen Or Pencil For These Days Is To Sign A Contract, A Check, Or An Autograph.

Moving Pictures Can Be And Will Be New And Fresh And Exciting As Long As There Are Ideas And Talent In The World.

Biggest Problem? Well, I'd Say It's Been My Biggest Problem All My Life. Money. It Takes A Lot Of Money To Make These Dreams Come True. From The Very Start It Was A Problem. Getting The Money To Open Disneyland. About Seventeen Million It Took. And We Had Everything Mortgaged Including My Personal Insurance.

Your Talent Makes You Who You Are. You Should Be Proud Of It.

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.

The Life And Ventures Of Mickey Mouse Have Been Closely Bound Up With My Own Personal And Professional Life.

I Am Interested In Entertaining People, In Bringing Pleasure, Particularly Laughter, To Others, Rather Than Being Concerned With "expressing" Myself With Obscure Creative Impressions.

A Person Should Set His Goals As Early As He Can And Devote All His Energy And Talent To Getting There. With Enough Effort, He May Achieve It. Or He May Find Something That Is Even More Rewarding. But In The End, No Matter What The Outcome, He Will Know He Has Been Alive.

I Just Want It To Look Like Nothing Else In The World. And It Should Be Surrounded By A Train.

At First The Cartoon Medium Was Just A Novelty, But It Never Really Began To Hit Until We Had More Than Tricks... Until We Developed Personalities. We Had To Get Beyond Getting A Laugh. They May Roll In The Aisles, But That Doesn't Mean You Have A Great Picture. You Have Pathos In The Thing.

When People Laugh At Mickey Mouse, It's Because He's So Human; And That Is The Secret Of His Popularity.

Being A Celebrity Doesn't Even Seem To Keep The Fleas Off Our Dogs — And If Being A Celebrity Won't Give Me An Advantage Over A Couple Of Fleas, Then I Guess There Can't Be Much In Being A Celebrity After All.

I Do Not Like To Repeat Successes, I Like To Go On To Other Things.

Adults Are Interested If You Don't Play Down To The Little 2 Or 3 Year Olds Or Talk Down. I Don't Believe In Talking Down To Children. I Don't Believe In Talking Down To Any Certain Segment. I Like To Kind Of Just Talk In A General Way To The Audience. Children Are Always Reaching.

Everything That Matters To We Can Work Out As Expected, In The Event That We Have The Strength To Seek After Them.

Over At Our Place, We’re Sure Of Just One Thing: Everybody In The World Was Once A Child. So In Planning A New Picture, We Don’t Think Of Grown-ups, And We Don’t Think Of Children. But Just Of That Fine, Clean, Unspoiled Spot Down Deep In Every One Of Us, That Maybe The World Has Made Us Forget.

Leadership Means That A Group, Large Or Small, Is Willing To Entrust Authority To A Person Who Has Shown Judgement, Wisdom, Personal Appeal, And Proven Competence.

Frying Pans! Who Knew, Right?

Money-or Rather The Lack Of It To Carry Out My Ideas-may Worry Me, But It Does Not Excite Me.
