우리는 비평가들을 즐겁게 하려는것이 아니다. 나는 이런 기회들을 대중들과 함께 할 것이다.

우리는 디즈니 랜드를 만들었다. 내가 대화한 거의 모든사람들이 그건 재정적인 위기를 불러일으킬것이고 만든지 일년도 안되 문을닫고 잊혀질거라고 생각하는것을 알면서도.

우리는 궁금하기 때문에 계속 전진하고, 새로운 문을열고, 새로운 것들을 시도한다. 궁금증이란건 우리를 늘 새로은 길로 안내한다.

우리가 디즈니랜드를 열었을때, 많은 사람들은 빠르게 성공할수 있는 비결이 여기있구나 라고 생각했다. 하지만 그들이 깨닫지 못한건, 디즈니랜드 그 뒤의 훌륭한 조직과 내가 지은 스튜디오, 그리고 모든사람들의 열정과 노력이였다.

You can design and create, and build the most wonderful place in the world. But it takes people to make the dream a reality.

There is a natural hootchy-kootchy motion to a goldfish.

People look at you and me to see what they are supposed to be. And, if we don’t disappoint them, maybe, just maybe, they won’t disappoint us.

Movies can and do have tremendous influence in shaping young lives in the realm of entertainment towards the ideals and objectives of normal adulthood.

Mickey Mouse popped out of my mind onto a drawing pad 20 years ago on a train ride from Manhattan to Hollywood at a time when business fortunes of my brother Roy and myself were at lowest ebb and disaster seemed right around the corner.

Mickey Mouse is, to me, a symbol of independence. He was a means to an end.

Laughter is America’s most important export.

It’s something that will never be finished. Something that I can keep developing… and adding to.

It’s no secret that we were sticking just about every nickel we had on the chance that people would really be interested in something totally new and unique in the field of entertainment.

It’s kind of fun to do the impossible.

If you can dream it, you can do it. Always remember that this whole thing was started with a dream and a mouse.

I’d say it’s been my biggest problem all my life… it’s money. It takes a lot of money to make these dreams come true.

I would rather entertain and hope that people learned something than educate people and hope they were entertained.

I try to build a full personality for each of our cartoon characters – to make them personalities.

I started, actually, to make my first animated cartoon in 1920. Of course, they were very crude things then and I used sort of little puppet things.

I only hope that we don’t lose sight of one thing – that it was all started by a mouse.

I never called my work an ‘art’ It’s part of show business, the business of building entertainment.

I love Mickey Mouse more than any woman I have ever known.

I first saw the site for Disneyland back in 1953, In those days it was all flat land – no rivers, no mountains, no castles or rocket ships – just orange groves, and a few acres of walnut trees.

I don’t want the public to see the world they live in while they’re in the Park (Disneyland). I want to feel they’re in another world.

I don’t like formal gardens. I like wild nature. It’s just the wilderness instinct in me, I guess.

I believe in being an innovator.

I am not influenced by the techniques or fashions of any other motion picture company.

I always like to look on the optimistic side of life, but I am realistic enough to know that life is a complex matter.

Here in Florida, we have something special we never enjoyed at Disneyland…the blessing of size. There’s enough land here to hold all the ideas and plans we can possibly imagine.

Give the public everything you can give them, keep the place as clean as you can keep it, keep it friendly.

Disneyland will never be completed. It will continue to grow as long as there is imagination left in the world.

Disneyland is the star, everything else is in the supporting role.

Disneyland is a work of love. We didn’t go into Disneyland just with the idea of making money.

Disneyland is a show.

Crowded classrooms and half-day sessions are a tragic waste of our greatest national resource – the minds of our children.

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.

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.

Animation can explain whatever the mind of man can conceive. This facility makes it the most versatile and explicit means of communication yet devised for quick mass appreciation.

All cartoon characters and fables must be exaggeration, caricatures. It is the very nature of fantasy and fable.

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. Chi

I have no other view than to promote the public good, and am unambitious of honors not founded in the approbation of my Country.
