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

Girls bored me, they still do. I love Mickey Mouse more than any woman I've ever known

There is more treasure in books than in all the pirate's loot on Treasure Island

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

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

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

There's nothing funnier than the human animal

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

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

A man should never neglect his family for business
