I Gave Someone A Perverse Argument Not So Long Ago About Why Advertising Is Better Than Movies. You Want To Hear It? Movies Operate From A Really Disingenuous Premise, That People Are Heroes.

Advertising Tries Something Simpler And More Believable: Products As Heroes. I Guess The Idea Is: When All Else Fails, Put Your Faith In Conditioner.

Philip Glass Once Told Me, "they Can Always Copy What You've Done, But They Can't Copy What You're Going To Do."

One Of The Strengths Of My Interviews Is That I Really, Honest To God, Have No Idea What People Are Going To Say.

God Is Greater Than Anything That Man Can Do Or Has Done. He Is Not Undone By Just A Train Of Powder. "our God Is Not Out Of Breath Because He Has Blown One Tempest And Swallowed A Navy: Our God Has Not Burnt Out His Eyes Because He Has Looked Upon A Train Of Powder."

You Can't Really Trust Anybody Who Doesn't Talk A Lot, Because How Would You Know What They're Thinking?
