Nature Quotes
-
Human nature, at its best, had always been based on a deep heroic restlessness, on wanting something-something else, something more, whether it be true love or a glimpse just beyond the horizon.

Strife to test valor is still and will always be the basic ingredient of the animated tale, as of all screen entertainments.
Walt Disney
