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

I still don't know precisely why The Mickey Mouse Club ended when it did.

I'm saddened to see that some have been misled into believing that Mr. Disney was something other than a kind, caring man.

At the beginning of 1955 only about 60 percent of American homes had TVs.

Growing up in public is especially hard sometimes.

When you are young and healthy, it never occurs to you that in a single second your whole life could change.

I was not prepared to live as a single parent.

Of all the roles I've played, none has been as fulfilling as being a mother.

Whatever dreams I have wished have come true.

Whatever ambivalence I felt about my own career, Frankie more than made up for it with his ambition and tenacity.

Animation did not become the dominant form of children's television until the '60s.

Mr. Disney and his staff were constantly scouting for great stories to bring to life on film.

MS is not really a degenerative illness. It is not fatal, nor is it always progressive.

In 1993 my birthday present was a star on Hollywood's Walk of Fame.

Watching television in those days was not the same experience as it is today. After years of listening to radio, we found the black-and-white images mesmerizing.

My dear friend Jimmie Dodd was the heart and the soul of The Mickey Mouse Club.

The Lord has been with me throughout my life. He's never let me down.

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

The mere thought of divorce terrified me. To me, divorce symbolized failure.

For me, the wheelchair symbolizes disability in a way a cane does not.

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

In the United States women develop MS at approximately twice the rate men do, and no one can explain why women are affected most often from the waist down.

Then, as now, the Disney studio buzzed with activity. You had a strong impression of being at the center of something very exciting.

As I grew older, I came to feel more responsible for any hardship or trouble my career caused my family.

I've always found Mr. Disney to be somewhat of a shy person, a kid at heart.

I have always thought of Walt Disney as my second father.

Dick Clark really didn't make rock 'n roll safe for America, as many people think.

Mr. Disney believed everyone was still a child deep inside.

As I travel across the country speaking about MS, perhaps I can offer others comfort and hope.

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

Just learning that you have MS is such a devastating shock.

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

I always considered myself a dancer before anything else.

To some, the '50s were a decade marked by the banal, the predictable.

For me the wheelchair symbolizes disability in a way a cane does not.

We're gonna try and bring on all the different aspects of horror movie making and bring on guests and show all these old '50's B movies. Not the real corny ones, the real cool ones.

The people I want are very famous and very rich, and all I can offer them is a bit of exposure on TV and a bit of cash, so it's a miracle we get any guests at all. But we have been very lucky.

The magic formula that successful businesses have discovered is to treat customers like guests and employees like people.

Dessert is probably the most important stage of the meal, since it will be the last thing your guests remember before they pass out all over the table.

Humility is a virtue, and it is a virtue innate in guests.

Your baby only needs a lot of light at night if he's reading or he's entertaining guests.

Go now, verses, on your light feet, you have not trodden hard on the old earth where the graves laugh when they see their guests, the one corpse stacked on top of the other. Go now and stagger to her whom I do not know.

To buy very good wine nowadays requires only money. To serve it to your guests is a sign of fatigue.

People are either born hosts or born guests.

You must strive to multiply bread so that it suffices for the tables of mankind, and not rather favor an artificial control of birth, which would be irrational, in order to diminish the number of guests at the banquet of life.

The theme of the party was Neverland Ranch, so guests were asked to come as anyone or anything associated with Michael Jackson. It was all very disturbing.

My table seats eight, so that's my maximum. Having a small number of guests is the only way to generate good conversation. Besides, your whole house doesn't get wrecked that way.

The number of guests at dinner should not be less than the number of the Graces nor exceed that of the Muses, i.e., it should begin with three and stop at nine.

A few years ago no hotel or restaurant in Boston refused Negro guests; now several hotels, restaurants, and especially confectionary stores, will not serve Negroes, even the best of them.
