If you, my fellow copywriters or art directors, want to win the award, devote your genius to making the cash register ring Picture Quote #1

Even when writing your own poems, you need to talk to people; you need to magpie around, getting words and things. I’m very against the celebrity culture that wants to say: ‘this is a genius, this is one person who has done something brilliant.’ There are always a hundred people in the background who have helped to make it Picture Quote #1

The genius of our founders is that they designed a system of government that can be changed. And we should take heart, because we’ve changed this country before Picture Quote #1

Hitler’s success was not based on his extraordinary gifts alone. His genius was an intuitive sense of the mushiness, the character flaws, the weakness masquerading as morality that was in the hearts of the statesmen who stood in his path Picture Quote #1

We’ve done it, and we’ve got to straighten it out Picture Quote #1

Charles Schultz is a really interesting case. He wrote that comic strip and drew it himself from beginning to end, and it’s a work of genius. It’s very simply drawn, but it has some really deep emotions that you don’t expect in a silly-looking comic strip Picture Quote #1

America’s abundance was not created by public sacrifices to the common good, but by the productive genius of free men who pursued their own personal interests and the making of their own private fortunes Picture Quote #1
