I am interested in entertaining people, in bringing pleasure, particularly laughter, to others, rather than being concerned with "expressing" myself with obscure creative impressions.

When you're working on a project, make sure at least one person knows what they are doing.

We allow no geniuses around our Studio.

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.

Sometimes I think of myself as a little bee. I go from one area of the studio to another and gather pollen and sort of stimulate everybody. I guess that’s the job I do.

When you believe in a thing, believe in it all the way, implicitly and unquestionably.

I love the nostalgic myself. I hope we never lose some of the things of the past.
