“Advertising is to a genuine article what manure is to land, - it largely increases the product.”
“What the advertiser needs to know is not what is right about the product but what is wrong about the buyer.”
“A Wikipedia article is a process, not a product.”
“There are huge advertising budgets only when there's no difference between the products. If the products really were different, people would buy the one that's better. Advertising teaches people not to trust their judgment. Advertising teaches people to be stupid.”
“A sign in the window advertised thelong extinct Miller Genuine Draft.”
“The most advertised commodity is not always intrinsically the best; but is sometimes merely the product of a company, with plenty of money to spend on advertising.”
