"This was my first time in Govan. You could smell and taste the thick smog in the air. The Blue Triangle was a new high-tech building, and it didn't look right standing there in front of older and more historical buildings. The Blue Triangle may have looked great from the outside, but once inside, to my horror, it was full of young teenage boys and girls full of deep and dark depression."

People
"The pursuit of excellence is less profitable than the pursuit of bigness, but it can be more satisfying."
Excellence
"Remove advertising, disable a person or firm from proclaiming its wares and their merits, and the whole of society and of the economy is transformed. The enemies of advertising are the enemies of freedom."
Society
"The secret of long life is double careers. One to about age sixty, then another for the next thirty years."
Life
