Forever is a long long time and time has a way of changing things

Laughter is America's most important export.

Keep Moving Forward

Those who are clever, who have a brain, never understand anything.

Landscapes of great wonder and beauty lie under our feet and all around us. They are discovered in tunnels in the ground, the heart of flowers, the hollows of trees, fresh-water ponds, seaweed jungles between tides, and even drops of water. Life in these hidden worlds is more startling in reality than anything we can imagine. How could this earth of ours, which is only a speck in the heavens, have so much variety of life, so many curious and exciting creatures?

It's because I like you, I don't want to be with you. It's a complicated emotion

After the rain, the sun will reappear.
There is life. After the pain, the joy will still be here.

"If you don't like Cinderella because she seems so "naive" and "weak," listen to this quote from the Walt himself: "She believed in dreams, all right, but she also believed in doing something about them. When Prince Charming didn't come along, she went over to the palace and got him.

To all that 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 hope that it will be a source of joy and inspiration to all the world.

Let your heart guide you...it whispers so listen closely.

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

I love Mickey Mouse more than any woman I have ever known.

If he could learn to love another, and earn her love in return by the time the last petal fell, then the spell would be broken. If not, he would be doomed to remain a beast for all time. As the years passed, he fell into despair and lost all hope. For who could ever learn to love a beast? -Beauty & the Beast

I only hope that we never lose sight of one thing — that it was all started by a mouse.

Disneyland is like Alice stepping through the Looking Glass; to step through the portals of Disneyland will be like entering another world.
