Inspirattional quotes from Walt Disney, the creator of Disney. Here are the best Walt Disney quotes to awaken the dreamer in you.

It’s difficult to imagine a childhood today without the magic of Disney. Yet it’s even harder to imagine that it all began with one man, whose journey from failed experimenter to mythic pioneer was powered by the passion and perseverance to never let the doubters stop his pursuit of a crazy dream.

From the first ever color cartoon starring Mickey and his friends, to the first ever Academy Award won by an animated short, and of course, the first full-length animated film, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Walt Disney’s trailblazing career was built on a steady succession of firsts. Snow White is today viewed as a monument of cinematic genius that launched one of America’s most beloved institutions. But what we often forget is that it was a success that wasn’t supposed to be. Disney risked it all on his wide-eyed dream, borrowing almost all of Snow White‘s unprecedented budget of $1.5 million… as the Great Depression was still in full swing. Even his wife thought it was madness to think that adults would sit through a full-length cartoon musical based on a fairy tale. But Disney ignored the naysayers and pressed on with his ambitions — and the rest, as we say, is cinema history.

Disney knew that inside every grown-up is a child longing to dream freely again. From Snow White to Winnie the Pooh to The Lion King to Frozen, Disney’s legacy has influenced millions of children across the world.
