My interest is in Disney films and Disneyland, Anaheim. This book gives 100+ alphabetized quotes from Walt Disney over his entire career. Many of the quotes gives his impression of the Disney film project (a large business) and Disneyland (a personal project) which he saw as separate during his lifetime. He talks about his theory of learning and visual learning, especially for kids. He says that his first creation Mickey, was a symbol independence, of making something of yourself. He said that the Mickey Mouse Club TV Show portrayed kids taking the same initiative to grow into maturity. Walt says that Disneyland was a place he thought important to take his own kids to see what the future was like and a place for the parents to reminisce about the past that was not yet totally faded. This book was published by the Disney Corporation for sale at the Disney resorts. Disney was proud of his American patriotism and Disney was enlisted in promoting the World War II war effort on the home-front. Excellent book.
