Without the capacity to freely shape our own lives, much as a sculptor might carve stone, we inevitably slip into negativity and depression.
H. E. Davey

Machado de Assis

A genius is the man in whom you are least likely to find the power of attending to anything insipid or distasteful in itself.

John Lanchester

I came into the advertising business in 1952, at the age of sixteen, as a delivery boy for a stuffy, old-line advertising agency named Ruthruff and Ryan, which could have served as the setting for the 'Mad Men' television series without moving a desk.
Jerry Della Femina
