"The simplest things are often the truest."
—John Lasseter
"I came around to what the movie and the premise is for me: 'Irrational love defies life's programming.' We all fall into our ruts. We all fall into our routines, our distractions, and our automations. And it just takes random acts of kindness, joy, love, to make you appreciate what you have or to get out of the rut that you're in. I felt this premise could apply to what the state of humanity had become, to what WALL·E was going through, and what EVE's robotic life was like before somebody awakened her."
—Andrew Stanton, director/writer
"CG is a great medium, and I love it. The technology deserves a little more credit than it gets around here, because the computer scientists are so good. But we pride ourselves on saying, 'It's nothing without the stories.'"
—Jonas Rivera

"One of the blessings of this place is that it's run not by executives, but by filmmakers with executive power. So it's all storytellers. And you feel very safe and protected in that environment."
—Brad Bird
"It’s so important to create in your own voice, to hold onto what makes you unique, and have faith in your vision."
—John Lasseter
"For all the care you put into artistry, visual polish frequently doesn't matter if you are getting the story right."
—Ed Catmull
"It's like you run into this dark tunnel, trusting that somewhere there's another end to it where you're going to come out. And there's a point in the middle where it's just dark. There's no light from where you came in and there's no light at the other end; all you can do is keep running. And then you start to see a little light, and a little more light, and then, bam! You're out in the sun." —Pete Docter
“Candor could not be more crucial to our creative process. Why? Because early on, all of our movies suck.”
Ed Catmull
“If you’re always questioning and allowing yourself to be humble enough to take your licks and accept the idea that your work can always be improved, then you’re much more inclined to learn from other people’s projects and become better.”
Brad Bird
“There’s never a wrong idea. You just keep throwing stuff out and inevitably there are elements of different things that inspire a character or environment.”
— John Lasseter
