Advertising will get more and more targeted until it disappears, because perfectly targeted advertising is just information.
Dave Winer
Image
Advertising generally works to reinforce consumer trends rather than to initiate them.
Michael Schudson
Image
Advertising - a judicious mixture of flattery and threats.
Northrop Frye
Image
Advertising, as a single entity capable of creating vast changes in our social structure, simply does not exist. Its impact is too diffuse, too omnidirectional.
Prince William of Hesse-Kassel
Image
Advertising agencies don't care about a better world in the end. They are servants of their client: what the client wants is what they get. Their only problem is to not lose the budget. I think its a shame because advertising is so boring and it can be so interesting. They should ask more artists to make interesting campaigns.
Oliviero Toscani
Image
Advertising is to a genuine article what manure is to land, - it largely increases the product.
P. T. Barnum
Image
Advertising reaches out to touch the fantasy part of people's lives. And you know, most people's fantasies are pretty sad.
Frederik Pohl
Image
Advertising gets such a bashing from the world. At parties you are always asked, 'Aren't you just selling people things they don't want?
Paul Arden
Image
Advertising spending continues to be somewhat choppy in our markets, but we do not view December's results as indicative of a trend in advertising performance going forward.
Gary Pruitt
Image
Advertising is the fuel of enterprise.
George Arthur French
Image
Advertising is a conscienceless industry, populated by cowards and idiots, that warps and drains everyone. It eggs on the worst in all of us. If I could eliminate either advertising or nuclear weapons, I would choose advertising.
George Meyer
Image
Advertising is the tax you pay for being unremarkable.
Robert Stephens
Image
Advertising is the modern substitute for argument its function is to make the worse appear the better.
George Santayana
Image
Advertising is a racket, like the movies and the brokerage business. You cannot be honest without admitting that its constructive contribution to humanity is exactly minus zero.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
Image
Advertising is about norms and values, aspirations and prejudices. It is about culture.
Anil Ambani
Image
Advertising in the final analysis should be news. If it is not news it is worthless.
Adolph Ochs
Image
Advertising ... is a parasitic activity it forces goods for which there is no real need or demand on a foolish or even a reluctant public, always by appealing to their lower instincts.
Ann Bridge
Image
Advertising is the way great brands get to be great brands.
Al Ries
Image
Advertising serves not so much to advertise products as to promote consumption as a way of life. It 'educates' the masses into an unappeasable appetite not only for goods but for new experiences and personal fulfillment.
Christopher Lasch
Image
Advertising is not a rifle it is a shotgun, and any campaign featuring outdoor boards of a cartoon animal inevitably will catch children in its spray.
Bob Garfield
Image
Advertising companies hire the very brightest, wittiest young people to write for them. Not one single sentence of it is worth repeating. Why? Because it wasn't meant.
Brenda Ueland
Image
Advertising is prima facie evidence that the man who pays believes that advertising is good. It has brought great results to others, it must be good for him. So he takes it like some secret tonic which others have endorsed. If the business thrives, the tonic gets the credit. Otherwise, the failure is due to fate.
Claude C. Hopkins
Image
Advertising degrades the people it appeals to it deprives them of their will to choose.
C.P. Snow
Image
Advertising ministers to the spiritual side of trade.
