Advertising. The movies do it. TV does it. Why don't you do it?
Dale Carnegie

Why talk about what we want? That is childish. Absurd. Of course, you are interested in what you want. You are eternally interested in it. But no one else is. The rest of us are just like you: we are interested in what we want.
