Walt Disney said, "There is more treasure in books than in all the pirates' loot on Treasure Island and at the bottom of the Spanish Main. . . ." Never has this been truer than within these pages. The Quotable Walt Disney is filled with genius and insight of the founder of The Walt Disney Company. The quotations range from the well-known to the obscure, but all are assured to entertain, enlighten, and inspire. Dave Smith's work holds anecdotes that not only offer lessons on life, work, and creativity, but also illuminate the philosophy of one of America's greatest creative geniuses. Its convenient, best-selling format makes it a perfect fit (whether in a backpack or on a coffee table) and a delightful gift.
