When I started on Disneyland, my wife used to say, "But why do you want to build an amusement park? They're so dirty." I told her that was just the point - mine wouldn't be.

I have no use for people who throw their weight around as celebrities, or for those who fawn over you just because you are famous.

You'll be a poorer person all your life if you don't know some of the great stories and great poems.

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

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

Whatever we accomplish is due to the combined effort.

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.
