Studies indicate that these children are more susceptible to advertising and even less likely to understand the purpose of this advertising. Bob Filner
There is a great deal of advertising that is much better than the product. When that happens, all that the good advertising will do is put you out of business faster. Jerry Della Femina
There is no such thing as national advertising. All advertising is local and personal. It's one man or woman reading one newspaper in the kitchen or watching TV in the den. Morris Hite
It takes good clients to make a good advertising agency. Regardless of how much talent an ad agency may have, it is ineffective without good products and services to advertise. Morris Hite
The Internet offers an interesting combination of advertising and community by participating in the community you can become an advertisement for yourself. Walter Jon Williams
There is no need for advertisements to look like advertisements. If you make them look like editorial pages, you will attract about 50 per cent more readers. David Ogilvy
Some manufacturers illustrate their advertisements with abstract paintings. I would only do this if I wished to conceal from the reader what I was advertising. David Ogilvy
