Religion is the best antidote to the individualism of the consumer age. The idea that society can do without it flies in the face of history and, now, evolutionary biology.

The great myth that many social scientists want to encourage is that there is an incompatibility between modern technology and traditional religion. This is absolute nonsense. If anything, it's the reverse.

History will see advertising as one of the real evil things of our time. It is stimulating people constantly to want things, want this, want that.

It is better to imitate ancient than modern work.

It can be demonstrated that in any society there is a distribution of religious tastes and concerns.

I believe all religions are becoming obsolete, clinging to ancient concepts.

We live in secular world now, but most of our art and culture is rooted in religion.

Society drives people crazy with lust and calls it advertising.

The older I get, the more I realize that religion is not going to be easily marginalized by one of its wannabe successors - science, capitalism, consumerism.

It's almost as if creativity is dead. The visual power of advertising was everywhere - now it's basically gone.
