    From the Great One himself.....

    "That’s one thing I learned from Disneyland, to control the environment. Without that, we get blamed for things that someone else does. When they come here, they’re coming because of an integrity that we’ve established over the years, and they drive for hundreds of miles and the little hotels on the fringe would jump their rates three times. I’ve seen it happen and I just can’t take it because it reflects on us. Now, if they don’t run a good hotel operation and those little honky-tonks come in there, I mean, even too much liquor can flow in areas and teenagers can get involved…we’re blamed.

    I just feel a responsibility to the public that we must control (the environment) when they come into this world, that we take the blame for what goes on. Also, to keep an operation like Disneyland going we have to pour it in there. It’s what I call “Keeping the show on the road.” You just have to keep throwing it in; you can’t sit back and let it ride. You have to keep throwing it in. That’s been our policy all of our lives. My brother and I have done that and that is what has built our organization."
