If I remember correct suppesedly Walt said:"I dont get (stomach) ulcers, I give them".
But I fully agree on the CFOs spoiling the show: remember Tom & Jerry? There are (I think) 114 (great) episodes. Then at their creative peak the whole animation team was dismanteled, since they calculated they can make more money with reruns than with new content. Later there was a low quality reboot, though.

There are not attributions to Walt Disney uncovered. In an article about Disney https://jewishjournal.com/uncategorized/17567/ https://jewishjournal.com/uncategorized/17567/ Stanley Gold, a former director at Disney, is quoted saying, "I don’t get ulcers – I give ulcers." I don't believe that you remembered this correctly.
