My parents who worked in the business, felt lion-taming was preferable to acting. They said 93 per cent of all actors were out of work, and tried to talk me out of it. But I grew up mixing with Mum and Dad`s friends. Adult actors are really childish, and ...

[On his strengths and weaknesses]: "I regret that I do not have the dignity of Ricardo Montalban, the class of Dean Martin, or the humour of Bill Cosby. I DO have the heart of a lion.
Burt Reynolds
I`d never written for talking fuzzy animals before. I knew how to write to human emotions but these were animals. It took me a while to sort of get over that and do what you do which is just treat them like human characters. (On The Lion King (1994)]
Hans Zimmer
What I hope is that I don`t just become `Peter from The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe.` I want to try and do something else to be a good actor and a respected actor.
William Moseley
Each of the characters in `The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe` has their own journey and Susan`s no different. Like Peter, she feels the obligation of looking after her younger brother and sister and it`s something that has made her grow up too fast - b...

(When asked about his inspiration growing up) "My number one inspiration was my mother. She worked two jobs and had breakfast and dinner prepared. I essentially called my mother, The Lion. She`s fierce and she`s proud. I`d like to think some of that rubbe...

[on MGM chief Louis B. Mayer] Louis B. Mayer came out west with $28.00, a box camera and an old lion. He built a monument to himself -- the Bank of America.

I have all these computers and keyboards and synthesizers, and I rattle away. For instance, with The Lion King I wrote over four hours` worth of tunes, and they were really pretty --but totally meaningless. So in the end I came up with material I liked. W...

When I was thinking about The Lion King, I said, we have to do what theater does best. What theater does best is to be abstract and not to do literal reality.

What we are effectively doing, I say this to the young people of America whom my colleagues represent, is leaving our children and grandchildren the tab for fighting a war, letting them pay for the lion`s share of it by simply adding it to the national de...

We loved it. The kids have uniforms with the likeness of a cat. The cheer is like letting out a mountain lion growl. Unlike the higher leagues that have familiar names like the Yankees or Dodgers, this is unique.

The lion`s share of what I hear right now are people who, intentional or accidental, have avoided all jazz prior to 1960. And all the musicians who were successful in the `60s spent their entire lives, prior to 1960, listening to all the musicians these p...

My first day at MGM they decided to bring this lion out, male, and it was not the best time for him to see me. All of a sudden he thought I was in heat and this lion went into the dressing room, which was just a trailer on the sound stage, and went crazy.
