Quotes from interviews:

"What are our cartoons? This is the creation of characters. Disney paid a lot of money to create Bambi, Snow White, 101 Dalmatians, for Mowgli. Our people gave Cheburashka, Gena the crocodile, 38 parrots for free. This was done by one artist - Leonid Shvartsman. He did not create stereotypes. He created characters."

"When I am asked what will happen in animation 50 years from now, what films will be like, I answer: what has been created since the Disney film 101 Dalmatians was born? Nothing better has been done. And after a while this film will look like a miracle, we will not understand how it was done. Because the school of classical animation, as we call it, is disappearing."
