Think, Believe, Dream, And Dare.

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.

Without Such Inspiration, We Would Rapidly Deteriorate And Finally Perish.

We're Not Trying To Entertain The Critics ... I'll Take My Chances With The Public.

But They Say If You Dream A Thing More Than Once, It's Sure To Come True.

I Do Not Make Films Primarily For Children. I Make Them For The Child In All Of Us, Whether We Be Six Or Sixty.
