"Or heritage and ideals, our code and standards - the things we live by and teach our children - are preserved or diminished by how freely we exchange ideas and feelings."
 
"I have been up against tough competition all my life. I wouldn't know how to get along without it."
 
"Crowded classrooms and half-day sessions are a tragic waste of our greatest national resource - the minds of our children."
 

"Of all of our inventions for mass communication, pictures still speak the most universally understood language."
 
This is my 500 post, and I am glad to be able to share with you guys. I enjoy coming here every day and reading the fun and sorrows of our large group friends. I wish I had more to share, but I'm busy shutting down this thread. :thumbsup2<---- thumb!
 
back to the quotes.

"I have no use for people who throw there weight around as celebrities, or for those who fawn over you just because you are famous."
 
"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. Children are always reaching."
 
"When we consider a project, we really study it--not just the surface idea, but everything about it. And when we go into that new project, we believe in it all the way. We have confidence in our ability to do it right. And we work hard to do the best possible job."
 
"When people laugh at Mickey Mouse, it's because he's so human; and that is the secret of his popularity."
 
"He 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."
 
"Born of necessity, the little fellow literally freed us of immediate worry. He provided the means for expanding our organization to its present dimensions and for extending the medium cartoon animation towards new entertainment levels. He spelled production liberation for us."
 
"We felt that the public, and especially the children, like animals that are cute and little. I think we are rather indebted to Charlie Chaplin for the idea. We wanted something appealing, and we thought of a tiny bit of a mouse that would have something of the wistfulness of Chaplin- a little fellow trying to do the best he could."
