There's a reason people run negative ads... it's because they work.

Ads shouldn't be in people's way.

Ads get a bad reputation sometimes because they're not useful. They're not relevant, or slow.

I don't want to kill ads. I think advertising is great, and I'm very aware that there's multiple revenue streams in television, subscription and advertising. But I also don't want to put my head in the sand, and I think the world is changing.

Sad to say, negative advertising really works.

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.

There is a great deal of advertising that is much better than the product. When that happens, all that the good advertising will do is put you out of business faster.

Advertising is - quite often - alive to our real needs. It's just the products on offer might not be the things that will help us satisfy them.

Advertising is what you do when you can't go see somebody. That's all it is.

Advertising is the edge of what people know how to do and of human experience and it explains the latest ways progress has changed us to ourselves.
