We did it Disneyland, in the knowledge that most of the people I talked to thought it would be a financial disaster - closed and forgotten within the first year.
Mickey Mouse popped out of my mind onto a drawing pad 20 years ago on a train ride from Manhattan to Hollywood at a time when business fortunes of my brother Roy and myself were at lowest ebb and disaster seemed right around the corner.
Disneyland is a work of love. We didn't go into Disneyland just with the idea of making money.
Disneyland will never be completed. It will continue to grow as long as there is imagination left in the world.
