I'm buying things for people I don't even know. I'm like Willy Wonka, but more manipulative. Imagine if Willy Wonka had a devious goal.

Russell Brand

I always say Coach Trestman reminds me of the first Willy Wonka. Not the Johnny Depp one.

Martellus Bennett

Yeah I'm in that Tonka color of Willy Wonka!

Nicki Minaj

Willy Wonka's like my Michael Jordan.

Martellus Bennett

I always say, 'I love chocolate, but I'm not Willy Wonka.'

Jimmy Iovine

There's a certain amount of screwball and genius in 'Willy Wonka.'

Douglas Hodge

Willy Wonka had his chocolate factory; I have my Fear & Fancy Parlor.

Mostly my ideas come from within, from my experiences, my childhood and the master of all sweets and lollies, Mr. Willy Wonka.

Adriano Zumbo

I want to be Willy Wonka. He has a really fun spirited side but also a dark, justice-giver side.

Drew Daywalt

Alaska is what happens when Willy Wonka and the witch from Hansel and Gretel elope, buy a place together upstate, renounce their sweet teeth, and turn into health fanatics.

French pharmacies probably feel like CVS to French people, but to me, they feel like a real-life version of 'Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory.'

Emily Weiss

I thought Willy Wonka was brilliant. He had all kinds of candy. Who doesn't like chocolate and candies? Everybody wanted a Gobstopper. I just think he's brilliant.

Martellus Bennett

My parents screened 'Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory' for my 6th birthday, and I became fascinated by the idea of living in a candy land with chocolate rivers and lollipop trees.

Dylan Lauren

When I go back to my hood, Queens, Brooklyn, or here in L.A., the people that's not famous, that's what inspires me.

Dave East

One of the earliest memories I have of feeling the power of film music was watching Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory. That was a really clear epiphany for me, when I realized that each film has its own music, and that there was someone out there who wrote this very specific music for just this one film.

Geoff Zanelli

I think I do myself a disservice by comparing myself to Steve Jobs and Walt Disney and human beings that we've seen before. It should be more like Willy Wonka... and welcome to my chocolate factory.

Kanye West
