Of the many guests we welcomed to the Mickey Mouse Club, my absolute favorites were the Lennon Sisters.

When people laugh at Mickey Mouse, it's because he's so human; and that is the secret of his popularity.

Mickey Cray had been out of work ever since a dead iguana fell from a palm tree and hit him on the head.

I'm probably a bit of a cheeky grandson, like my brother as well. We both take the mickey a bit too much.

I do what I do because of Walt Disney. Goofy. Mickey Mouse. I never forgot how their films entertained me.

That was real baseball. We weren't playing for money. They gave us Mickey Mouse watches that ran backwards.

I love Mickey Mantle. Would I have felt the same if I had known when I was eight years old what I know now?

I grew up watching Mickey Mouse and going to Disney World, like, 2,000 times. Mickey Mouse is like my guru.

The original Mickey Mouse Club, established in the '30s, was designed to attract children to movie theaters.

The life and ventures of Mickey Mouse have been closely bound up with my own personal and professional life.

I'm probably a bit of a cheeky grandson like my brother as well. We both tend to take the mickey a bit much.

Yankee Stadium, and the Yankees are so famous for Mickey Mantle, Joe DiMaggio, Lou Gehrig, all of those guys.

I have a paper, pencil, and ink sketch for a Mickey Mouse cartoon short entitled 'Mickey's Garden' from 1935.

When we got married, we kind of kept it quiet because everybody was saying, 'Oh, Mickey and Minnie got married.'

When you say 'comic book' in America, people think of Mickey Mouse, and Archie. It has a connotation of juvenile.

Mickey Mouse did not stay the little squeaky guy in 'Steamboat Willie.' He went on to have many different versions.

One person I find fascinating is J.Crew's Mickey Drexler. I would love to get into that brain and see how it works.

Wayne was coming out of a session as Mickey for 'Totally Minnie.' We met in the hallway. We just blended really well.

Mickey Mantle was a very good golfer, but we weren't allowed to play golf during the season; only at spring training.

America has the best athletic programs. Even when the Soviet Union existed, that was Mickey Mouse compared to the U.S.

Most original viewers of the Mickey Mouse Club didn't face the crush of family and social problems children have today.

There was a period of time when they estimated the two biggest stars in Hollywood were Charlie Chaplin and Mickey Mouse.

Mickey Mouse... is always there-he's part of my life. That really is something not everyone can call their claim to fame.

I was a big Mickey Rourke fan in his first incarnation. I thought that at the time he was America's greatest screen actor.

I like the mystery of seeing someone like Mickey Rourke do his thing. I don't know how he does it, but I'm glad he does it.

To this day, with all of these muscle-bound guys, nobody hit the ball further than Mickey Mantle, with his natural strength.

There's a brand, Mr. Bubble, that is sometimes called other things, like Mickey Mouse or other names. That's the stuff I use.

What about Mickey Mouse? Disney tried very hard to make him a star. But Mickey Mouse is more of a symbol than a real character.

As a child, I was obsessed with drawing things, like Mickey and Donald. And houses. My mother was worried I'd become an artist.

Whether it's as the hero of an adventure story, as teacher and friend, as icon on watch, shirt or hat - everyone knows Mickey Mouse.

I don't think that I'm as big as Lobo is, but if you could, like, transplant Mickey Rourke's body on my head, that would be just great.

I have two young kids. So my VCR, like, you kind of have to sift through a lot of, like, 'Animal Mechanicals,' 'Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.'

Everyone has someone they looked up to. Mine was Mickey Mantle. For Alex Rodriguez to idolize me coming up, that makes me feel very good.

I love New York. I love to come here, to play here, the tradition here. I'll never forget my first home run here was over Mickey Mantle's head.

I know it was all a bit of a sham. But I know that Mickey Dolenz sang. And Davy Jones sang. And Mike Nesmith sang. And Peter Tork did something.

My greatest joy is seeing parents and kids playing Disney 'Epic Mickey' together, handing the controllers back and forth, helping each other out.

Before I even got signed as a teen, I was singing with people like Hoyt Axton and Mickey Gilley. I worked with Jerry Lee Lewis and Little Richard.

I've always been interested in the gangster genre, so to play Mickey Cohen was a real thrill. It's always fun to do your take on someone so iconic.

Shamu the killer whale is Sea World's Mickey Mouse; whales named Shamu are the star attractions of three parks and the focus of their marketing efforts.

Even in China. Children there, next to the Great Wall, who had never seen Mickey Mouse responded. So the studio did have that skill to communicate with images.

I used to love watching him as a player, so it is a joy to play alongside him. I might take the mickey out of him, but deep down I have so much admiration for him.

I never get the accountants in before I start up a business. It's done on gut feeling, especially if I can see that they are taking the mickey out of the consumer.

Finding your place as an artist is the hardest thing. You come out of college with what feels like a Mickey Mouse degree that qualifies you for nothing in the real world.

I'm not angry; I write about angry characters. When I'm doing that, I'm happy. Just like when I'm writing about Mickey Sabbath being lustful, I'm not feeling lustful; I'm happy.

Someone once told me you don't know about cancer until it touches you. That's when it touched my brother, Mickey. There's nothing like it. When it touches you, it's overwhelming.

Everything is difficult, and everything worthwhile is difficult. A certain need, a need not unlike Mickey had: to know, to understand, and I had that need to understand and to know.

Nobody could pile on the applesauce like Mickey. He was the best liar in the world - well, Frank Sinatra can tell a good story, too, but I don't believe he was ever unfaithful to me.

I went to Bali, and I was in a small village, and somebody who was with me showed a woman a little figurine of Bart and asked: 'Do you know who this is?' And she said: 'Mickey Mouse.'

Mickey is one of the prime examples: Mickey has never been suspected of being an American export. It was deja vu. They gave him a local name and he's been accepted everywhere he goes.

I said to myself as Junction Point embarked on the Epic Mickey journey that, worst case, we'd be 'a footnote in Disney history.' Looking back on it, I think we did far better than that.
