A Good Story Can Take You On

Fancy Being Remembered Around The World For The Invention Of A Mouse!

I Think A Good Study Of Music Would Be Indispensable To The Animators - A Realization On Their Part Of How Primitive Music Is, How Natural It Is For People To Want To Go To Music - A Study Of Rhythm, The Dance - The Various Rhythms Enter Into Our Lives Every Day.

The Ideal Set-up Would Be The Story Man, The Director, And The Layout Man, As Well As Musician, Operating As A Sort Of Story Unit. They All Should Be Keenly Interested In The Picture. No One In Person Should Donate To An Extent Where He Would Keep The Others From Entering Into The Production And Freely Expressing Themselves.

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.

Art Was Always A Means To An End With Me. You Get An Idea, And You Just Can't Wait. Once You've Started, Then You're In There With The Punches Flying. There's Plenty Of Trouble, But You Can Handle It. You Can't Back Out. It Gets You Down Once In A While, But It's Exciting. Our Whole Business Is Exciting.
