Sri Aurobindo
All I know is this: nobody's very big in the first place, and it looks to me like everybody spends their whole life tearing everybody else down. Ken Kesey
...isn't it possible that advertising as a whole is a fantastic fraud, presenting an image of America taken seriously by no one, least of all the advertising men who create it? David Riesman
