Famous quotes containing the words product and/or line:
“In fast-moving, progress-conscious America, the consumer expects to be dizzied by progress. If he could completely understand advertising jargon he would be badly disappointed. The half-intelligibility which we expect, or even hope, to find in the latest product language personally reassures each of us that progress is being made: that the pace exceeds our ability to follow.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
“This is something that I cannot get overthat a whole line could be written by half a man, that a work could be built on the quicksand of a character.”
—Karl Kraus (18741936)
