"Twenty-one years ago, Michael Eisner brought an innovative spirit, a renewed vision and great leadership to the quiet, three* billion dollar Disney studio, transforming it into The Walt Disney Company of today, a nearly $60* billion undisputed world leader in media and entertainment. All of us at Disney thank you, Michael, for your many contributions, which have done so much to build upon the legacy of this fantastic enterprise, and for two decades of creativity, imagination and Disney magic."

- Bob Iger and the entire Disney Cast
