David Ogilvy

Our business is infested with idiots who try to impress by using pretentious jargon.

Don't bunt. Aim out of the ball park. Aim for the company of immortals.

A good advertisement is one which sells the product without drawing attention to itself.

Think of the earth as a living organism that is being attacked by billions of bacteria whose numbers double every forty years. Either the host dies, or the virus dies, or both die.

My first career ambitions involved turning into a boy; I intended to be either a railway guard or a knight errant.

I'd date someone younger or older; age doesn't matter to me. Or looks, really - it's all about maturity.
