We will be far more effective as communicators when we acknowledge our mistakes, and then we try to make them up.

I have seen how effective language attached to policies that are mainstream and delivered by people who are passionate and effective can change the course of history.

I tell this joke about Barack Obama is the best communicator of our generation: The guy reads a teleprompter better than any Hollywood actor. John McCain, his opponent - Stevie Wonder reads a teleprompter better than John McCain.

Nothing guarantees more applause and more support than the call to abolish the IRS.

People want to be inspired. They want to aspire to something. ... You can have the best product, the best service, the best argument in a debate. But without the effective words you still lose. In the end you need good principles and good language if you are to succeed.

Apple has a passion to deliver the most amazing, innovative - and, in fact, I got criticized because in Win, there are at least 10 references to what Steve Jobs has done, and Apple's done, in that my editor said it's too much. But Apple is a passionate company.

It applies even more to politicians because they are living, breathing embodiments of the language that they use. And it's why how you start the conversation, and how you end it, matters so much.

My father was a dentist, and I always thought that he was one of the 10. It's an interesting way to personalize and humanize, which is one of the most important aspects of communication.

What the people now respond - and the goal of those ads is to merely get the name of the medication into the minds of the consumers so that they will ask their doctor about it. That's the whole goal.

This book [ Win] is based on the interviews with three dozen Fortune 400 - or Forbes 400, the richest people, and a couple dozen of the top CEOs.I wanted to know what language they use to be successful, and I wanted to know the attributes that could then be applied to the average individual.

The best advertising and the best communication when it comes to business is that which makes you smile, that which makes you think, that which makes you ponder.
Frank Luntz
Believe in better, which is a corporate phrase rather than a political phrase. We don't want more. We're not looking for quantity. We're looking for quality. Believe in better suggests intergenerational change. It suggests product innovation. It suggests something better for the future.

When you're selling a product or service, you don't have - it doesn't have to be absolutely perfect, although I've provided language that is. When you're a politician, one wrong word changes the entire - changes the meaning of something.

There are certain aspects, and there are - there are 15 attributes of winners and winning slogans. Which side are you on sounds divisive, that you're on one side or the other, at a time when we actually want universality. We want unanimity.

With all due respect to UPS - it's a fine company - nobody cares about logistics. They care about that package arriving at their home, at their office, when it is supposed to and in the condition it's supposed to. FedEx is a much better communicator than UPS.
Frank Luntz
The second most important attribute of winners, after understanding the human dimension, is knowing what questions to ask, the rhetorical nature.
