"I
think the central metaphor of the movie is this notion of what the advertising
industry does. In order to make someone want to buy something, they first have
to make them feel bad about who they are in order to sell them that thing which
will make them whole again, and happy again."
-- Jennifer Beals
Advertising
isn't a science. It's persuasion. And persuasion is an art."
-- Bill Bernbach
"We
read advertisements... to discover and enlarge our desires. We are always ready
- even eager - to discover, from the announcement of a new product, what we have
all along wanted without really knowing it."

promotes that divine discontent which makes people strive to improve their economic
status."

impudence, and resource in certain individuals, it proves to my mind the wide
prevalence of that form of mental degradation which is called gullibility."
-- Joseph Conrad

is to avoid the concrete promise and cultivate the delightfully vague."

"Asked about the power
of advertising in research surveys, most agree that it works, but not on them."
