Everyone Has To Contribute, Or They Become Laborers.

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.

Movies Can And Do Have Tremendous Influence In Shaping Young Lives In The Realm Of Entertainment Towards The Ideals And Objectives Of Normal Adulthood.

I Don't Pretend To Know Anything About Art. I Make Pictures For Entertainment, And Then The Professors Tell Me What They Mean.

When We Do Fantasy, We Must Not Lose Sight Of Reality.

A Lie Keeps Growing And Growing Until It's As Plain As The Nose On Your Face.

We're Not Trying To Entertain The Critics ... I'll Take My Chances With The Public.

Without Such Inspiration, We Would Rapidly Deteriorate And Finally Perish.

Do A Good Job. You Don't Have To Worry About The Money; It Will Take Care Of Itself. Just Do Your Best Work - Then Try To Trump It.

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

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.

We Have Created Characters And Animated Them In The Dimension Of Depth, Revealing Through Them To Our Perturbed World That The Things We Have In Common Far Outnumber And Outweigh Those That Divide Us.

A Man Should Never Neglect His Family For Business.

Those Who Are Clever, Who Have A Brain, Never Understand Anything.

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.

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.

Why Do We Have To Grow Up? I Know More Adults Who Have The Children's Approach To Life. They're People Who Don't Give A Hang What The Joneses Do. You See Them At Disneyland Every Time You Go There. They Are Not Afraid To Be Delighted With Simple Pleasures, And They Have A Degree Of Contentment With What Life Has Brought - Sometimes It Isn't Much, Either.

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.

There's Really No Secret About Our Approach. We Keep Moving Forward - Opening Up New Doors And Doing New Things - Because We're Curious. And Curiosity Keeps Leading Us Down New Paths. We're Always Exploring And Experimenting. We Call It Imagineering - The Blending Of Creative And Imagination With Technical Know-how.

Disneyland Really Began When My Two Daughters Were Very Young. Saturday Was Always Daddy's Day And I Would Take Them To The Merry-go-round, And Sit On A Bench Eating Peanuts While They Rode. And Sitting There Alone, I Felt There Should Be Something Built, Some Kind Of Family Park Where Parents And Children Could Have Fun Together.

My Greatest Reward Is That I Have Been Able To Build This Wonderful Organization.

We Like To Have A Point Of View In Our Stories, Not An Obvious Moral, But A Worthwhile Theme. ... All We Are Trying To Do Is Give The Public Good Entertainment. That Is All They Want.

I've Wanted To Do Things; I Wanted To Build Things, To Get Something Going.

We Are Not Influenced By The Techniques Or Fashions Of Any Other Company.

I Don't Know If It's Art, But I Know I Like It.

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.

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.
