Adversity has a way of introducing a man to himself.
‐‐ Shia LaBeouf
Adversity has ever been considered the state in which a man most easily becomes acquainted with himself.
‐‐ Samuel Johnson
Adversity has the same effect on a man that severe training has on the pugilist: it reduces him to his fighting weight.
‐‐ Josh Billings
Adversity is a great teacher, but this teacher makes us pay dearly for its instruction; and often the profit we derive, is not worth the price we paid.
‐‐ Elizabeth Hardwick
Adversity is a stimulus.
‐‐ James Broughton
Adversity is like a strong wind. It tears away from us all but the things that cannot be torn, so that we see ourselves as we really are.
‐‐ Arthur Golden
Adversity is simply part of earth life. From it we can grow and progress if we choose to. Yes, some trials come because of our own disobedience, but many trials are simply part of life.
‐‐ John Bytheway
Adversity is sometimes hard upon a man; but for one man who can stand prosperity, there are a hundred that will stand adversity.
‐‐ Elvis Presley
Adversity is the diamond dust Heaven polishes its jewels with.
‐‐ Thomas Carlyle
Adversity is the first path to truth.
‐‐ Lord Byron
Adversity is the state in which man most easily becomes acquainted with himself, being especially free of admirers then.
‐‐ John Wooden
Adversity is the trial of principle. Without it a man hardly knows whether he is honest or not.
‐‐ Henry Fielding
Adversity isn't an obstacle that we need to get around in order to resume living our life. It's part of our life.

Advertisements contain the only truths to be relied on in a newspaper.

Advertisements may be evaluated scientifically; they cannot be created scientifically.
‐‐ Leo Bogart
Advertisements ordinarily work their wonders, to the extent that they work at all, on an inattentive public.
‐‐ Michael Schudson
Advertisers also know that humor can help bond us to their product.
‐‐ Allen Klein
Advertisers and marketers should be looking to bring new experiences to different parts of the brain. It's a more profound idea than just dropping a billboard into a video game.
‐‐ Jaron Lanier
Advertisers are not thinking radically enough - they look for technology to lead instead of trying the neuroscience approach and thinking about what parts of the brain haven't been activated before. These new experiences bring new capabilities to the brain.
‐‐ Jaron Lanier
Advertisers are very wary of ideological media.
‐‐ Paul Weyrich
Advertisers don't want to be ignored, and they are drunk on our data, which is what Google and other large networks are really selling. The ads are almost a by-product; what companies really want to know is what antiperspirant a woman of 25-34 is most likely to purchase after watching 'House of Cards.'
‐‐ Jeffrey Zeldman
Advertisers don't want to put their ads next to the investigative story; it's extremely difficult to do that. And very few people today actually read those serious news stories on the Web now.
‐‐ Pierre Omidyar
Advertisers now have a highly targeted opportunity for aligning their brands alongside the entertainment experience people are enjoying on YouTube.
‐‐ Chad Hurley
Advertisers realize that Gen Y is the largest purchasing cohort. Also, that you're going to have to accept some different modes of thinking if you're going to get to them.
‐‐ Shane Smith
Advertisers really want to create ads that are relevant to the realtime experience.
‐‐ Kimbal Musk
Advertising - a judicious mixture of flattery and threats.
‐‐ Northrop Frye
Advertising and content have always been bound together - in print, on television, and on the web. Sure, you can skip the ad - just flip the page, or press 'ffwd' on your DVR. But great advertising, as I've long argued, adds value to the content ecosystem, and has as much a right to be in the conversation as does the publisher and the consumer.
‐‐ John Battelle
Advertising as the printed form of selling would seem... ultimately to be justified in so far as it serves as a means of increasing legitimate human wants, as an agency of fair and economic competition in the distribution of goods, and as a stimulant to social progress.
‐‐ Daniel Starch
Advertising at its worst will be killed by the Internet. And rightly so.
‐‐ Maurice Saatchi
Advertising degrades the people it appeals to; it deprives them of their will to choose.
‐‐ Carrie Snow
Advertising generally works to reinforce consumer trends rather than to initiate them.
‐‐ Michael Schudson
Advertising gets such a bashing from the world. At parties you are always asked, 'Aren't you just selling people things they don't want?'
‐‐ Paul Arden
Advertising has always been a huge unrecognised source of outdoor relief for the arts.
‐‐ Peter York
Advertising holding companies used to boast about their share of the advertising market. Now they are proud of how much of their business is not in advertising.
‐‐ Maurice Saatchi
Advertising in the past has been predicated on a mass market and a captive audience.
‐‐ Howard Rheingold
Advertising is a business of words, but advertising agencies are infested with men and women who cannot write. They cannot write advertisements, and they cannot write plans. They are helpless as deaf mutes on the stage of the Metropolitan Opera.
‐‐ David Ogilvy
Advertising is a nebulous beast at the best of times.
‐‐ Antony Johnston
Advertising is a racket, like the movies and the brokerage business. You cannot be honest without admitting that its constructive contribution to humanity is exactly minus zero.
‐‐ F. Scott Fitzgerald
Advertising is a valuable economic factor because it is the cheapest way of selling goods, particularly if the goods are worthless.
‐‐ Sinclair Lewis
Advertising is a wonderful lubricant for business, if it's used properly.
‐‐ John Cullum
Advertising is, actually, a simple phenomenon in terms of economics. It is merely a substitute for a personal sales force - an extension, if you will, of the merchant who cries aloud his wares.
‐‐ Rosser Reeves
Advertising is an environmental striptease for a world of abundance.
‐‐ Marshall McLuhan
Advertising is legalized lying.
‐‐ H. G. Wells
Advertising is, of course, important because advertise is the final design. It's the last layer that speaks to the customer, that tells them what you have.
‐‐ Tom Ford
Advertising is only evil when it advertises evil things.
‐‐ David Ogilvy
Advertising is salesmanship mass produced. No one would bother to use advertising if he could talk to all his prospects face-to-face. But he can't.
‐‐ Morris Hite
Advertising is speech. It's regulated because it's often effective speech.
