"(Brands) They establish contact with the subconscious of the consumer below the word level. They do this with visual symbols instead of words ... They communicate faster. They are more direct.

- Ron Mather, Grey Advertising
"I don't think you need to offer a rational benefit. I think you need to offer a benefit a rational person can understand."
- Gary Goldsmith, Lowe Worldwide
