Archetypes Quotes
Between the theme parks and the movies, the Disney iconography was probably the first set of archetypes that I was exposed to. Walt was able to expose me as a child to the full array of emotions, including fear and sorrow. Those movies and attractions haunted my dreams and made a deep impression on me as a child.

Attendance Quotes
Disney has a business model predicated on the widest possible exposure of its media properties to drive attendance at its theme parks and purchases of home video and licensed products. Without broad, consistent local distribution of its films and TV shows in China, their model won't work.

Achieving Quotes
Disney has supported the deployment of HDMI since the first version of the specification was issued in 2002. The widespread adoption of HDMI in conjunction with HDCP has played an important role in enabling the transition to digital TV. We congratulate the HDMI community on achieving the important milestone of 300 adopters worldwide.

Ability Quotes
Video was inevitable in digital audio players; to actually build the consumer demand portion of that, there really needs to be compelling content. What's promising is that you have one of the biggest content companies in the world willing to experiment with this. But I'm doubtful it will appeal (right now). What will be more compelling is $10 for a whole season. But with Apple and Disney talking, it brings the ability for innovative distribution deals to come to light.

Anywhere Quotes
At the moment the market is stagnant, but I think in another four or five weeks it will take off again. There is becoming a land shortage in the Four Corners area, but developers will just look for land farther south. Anywhere where foreign owners can get to Disney within a half hour or so is still going to be very popular.

Buy Quotes
The simple conclusion is that kids watch Disney and kids buy music. I don't remember the last time a kids record was at No. 1, 2 or 3. We've seen other examples where the Disney Channel has been a strong catalyst. They've flexed that muscle before. What's new is that this is a movie musical as opposed to a concert special.

Adapt Quotes
When you look at every studio in the '20s or '30s, from Louis B. Mayer to Jack Warner, you see people who started with one plan and quickly shifted gears to adapt to a changing world. One of my favorite stories is that Walt Disney mortgaged his house to make 'Snow White.' He saw there was a real opportunity to change the world.

Appeals Quotes
The Rose Parade is a wonderful way for us to highlight our ongoing celebration of five decades of Disney theme park magic. Our parks are magical experiences that offer creatively unique entertainment that appeals to families the world over, transcending geographic and cultural barriers to simply speak the international language of fun -- that's pretty magical.

Clear Quotes
What used to seem inappropriate has become commonplace. The question is: Is Discovery going to make clear about whether Disney funded the programs or provided any services? Essentially, if it's nothing more than an infomercial, will it be presented as such? Or will it be presented as an independent production that's separate from promoting a theme park?

Embraced Quotes
Two-billion guests means two-billion lifetime memories that have been made and shared with friends and families at Disney Parks around the world. A visit to a Disney theme park, whether in California, Florida, Japan, France or China, remains a vibrant and universally embraced experience passed from generation to generation.

Adding Quotes
Successfully adding the popular characters from the Pirates of the Caribbean films with the mythology of our classic attraction is an example of Disney synergy and Walt Disney Imagineering at its finest. These additions will result in an exciting new chapter for the attraction and an unforgettable experience for our guests, giving them another reason to come and be a part of our continuing 50th anniversary celebration.

Accounts Quotes
Professionally and personally, Michelle is a true champion. While her magnificent artistry on the ice has been applauded the world over, she also sets the standard for grace and dignity, which truly accounts for her universal appeal. We at Disney are honored to be associated with Michelle and know that her unique style and commitment to quality will be enjoyed and appreciated by our audiences everywhere.

Certain Quotes
Of course we do not want to spoil the fun of the visitors by making them queue for a long time, or they may not be used to queuing for so long. That's why we are discussing with Disney to see if we could have flexible arrangements, like during certain days, when the number of people entering the park reaches a certain figure, they should not let the park become too crowded.

Art Quotes
Something happened when I was in elementary school. A Disney artist named Bruce McIntyre retired, and he had done drawings for 'Pinocchio' and 'Snow White' that was just classic stuff. He moved to the town I grew up in, Carlsbad, and he became a part-time art teacher at our elementary school.

Box Quotes
When Michael first stepped foot on the Disney lot two decades ago, he inherited a company with four theme parks, and a studio that was last place in the box office and didn't have one show on network television. Thanks to his great leadership and creativity, the Disney of today has grown exponentially, earning us the undisputed reputation for being the world's leader in quality family entertainment, which is why dedicating this remarkable building in Michael's honor is such a fitting tribute to the fantastic contributions he made to the Disney legacy.

Ball Quotes
Fame is a funny thing. I like doing normal things. I like going to fairs. I like going to ball games. I like going to Disney World or a big field on the Fourth of July and having picnics with friends. The problem is you're either worried you're going to be recognized, or you're thankful you're not. It's always there.

Bought Quotes
A la carte is not good for consumers, and we have experience to prove it. Disney Channel was once offered a la carte, but only a privileged few bought it despite the tremendous strength of our brand. Today, Disney Channel is in 87 million homes on expanded basic, and instead of putting our money towards marketing to retain subscribers, we are instead investing it in high quality programming.

Ability Quotes
Although the Disney franchise has a demonstrated ability to drive long-term growth, we are definitely not satisfied with our long-term performance, ... As a result, we are taking a number of steps, including an across-the-board assessment of our cost structure, to address the situation.

Animation Quotes
In college, I was a cartoonist at 'The Daily Northwestern.' So I draw myself. I was an animator. But basically, I went to Northwestern to major in English, wound up in college for two years. Studied animation there. Came to Disney. My first week at Disney was the week that 'Star Wars' came out.

Apple Quotes
Incredibly, Apple has persuaded Disney, which owns ABC, to make available all episodes of five TV series, including 'Lost,' 'Desperate Housewives' and 'Thats So Raven.' Each show costs $1.99 an easy impulse buy if you missed an episode. They play back beautifully, with no network logo in the corner, no yearlong wait for the DVD, and no commercials. (One 43-minute 'hour' of TV takes 12 minutes to download with my cable modem, and about two minutes to transfer to the iPod over its U.S.B. 2.0 cable.) ...That Mr. Jobs persuaded Disney to dip its pinky toe into these waters is an impressive development and a very promising sign.

Backs Quotes
I grew up in central Florida in the nineteen-sixties, barefoot half the time and running around the orange groves where my father worked. I remember flocks of white birds that would lift from the backs of cattle, disturbed by the jackhammers and bulldozers clearing land for Walt Disney World.
