"Dig within. Within is the wellspring of Good; and it is always ready to bubble up, if you just dig."

"There are two motives for reading a book; one, that you enjoy it; the other, that you can boast about it."

You know the one - when whatever's going on around you seems less real than what you're reading and all you want to do is keep going deeper into the story whether it's about being halfway up a mountain in Brazil in 1823 of in love with a man you aren't sure you can trust or fighting a war in the last human outpost, somewhere beyond the moon. Well, if you're writing that book it's real for you too."

"If an ad campaign is built around a weak idea - or as is so often the case, no idea at all - I don't give a damn how good the execution is, it's going to fail."

"The ultimate test of a finished account executive is his ability to write a sound marketing plan."

"Is advertising moral? It is part and parcel of the American free enterprise system... I challenge anybody to show any economic system that has done as much for so many in so short a time."
