I do not regard advertising as entertainment or an art form, but as a medium of information. – David Ogilvy
Never write an advertisement which you wouldn’t want your family to read. You wouldn’t tell lies to your own wife. Don’t tell them to mine. – David Ogilvy
If youre out there stressing on your pro day, then youre not going to perform well, so I plan on having a little fun. Play a little music while were out there throwing the football, have everybody tapping their toes and bobbing their head and just go out there and make the most of the experience. – Robert Griffin III
