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

In the modern world of business, it is useless to be a creative original thinker unless you can also sell what you create. Management cannot be expected to recognize a good idea unless it is presented to them by a good salesman.

The best ideas come as jokes. Make your thinking as funny as possible.

Political advertising ought to be stopped. It's the only really dishonest kind of advertising that's left.

Never write an advertisement which you wouldn't want your family to read. You wouldn't tell lies to your own wife. Don't tell them to mine.

I did not feel 'evil' when I wrote advertisements for Puerto Rico. They helped attract industry and tourists to a country which had been living on the edge of starvation for 400 years.
