Walt Disney

When you're curious, you find lots of interesting things to do.

Here is the world of imagination, hopes, and dreams. In this timeless land of enchantment, the age of chivalry, magic and make-believe are reborn - and fairy tales come true. Fantasyland is dedicated to the young-in-heart, to those who that when you wish upon a star, your dreams come true.

To all who come to this happy place: Welcome. Disneyland is your land. Here age relives fond memories of the past, and here youth may savor the challenge and promise of the future. Disneyland is dedicated to the ideals, the dreams, and the hard facts that have created America; with the hope that it will be a source of joy and inspiration to all the world.

It's kind of fun to do the impossible.

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

Happiness is a state of mind. It's just according to the way you look at things.

I just want to leave you with this thought, that it's just been sort of a dress rehearsal, and we're just getting started. So if any of you start resting on your laurels, I mean just forget it, because...we are just getting started.

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

To some people, I am kind of a Merlin who takes lots of crazy chances, but rarely makes mistakes. I've made some bad ones, but fortunately, the successes have come along fast enough to cover up the mistakes. When you go to bat as many times as I do, and continually improve upon your mistakes, you're bound to get a good average.

Good bye may seem forever. Farewell is like the end, but in my heart is the memory and there you will always be.

Get a good idea and stay with it. Dog it, and work at it until it's done right.

We believed in our idea - a family park where parents and children could have fun- together.

All your dreams can come true if you have the courage to pursue them.

I think it’s important to have a good hard failure when you're young. I learned a lot out of that. Because it makes you kind of aware of what can happen to you. Because of it I’ve never had any fear in my whole life when we’ve been near collapse and all of that. I’ve never been afraid. I’ve never had the feeling I couldn’t walk out and get a job doing something.

Why worry? If you've done the very best you can, worrying won't make it any better

I am a patient listener, but opinionated to the point of stubbornness when my mind is made up.

A person should set his goals as early as he can and devote all his energy and talent to getting there. With enough effort, he may achieve it. Or he may find something that is even more rewarding. But in the end, no matter what the outcome, he will know he has been alive.

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 allow no geniuses around our Studio.

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

Whenever I go on a ride, I'm always thinking of what's wrong with the thing and how it can be improved.
