F
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.

R
The best ideas come as jokes. Make your thinking as funny as possible.
A
Don't bunt. Aim out of the ball park. Aim for the company of immortals.
N
"The most important word in the vocabulary of advertising is TEST. If you pretest your product with consumers, and pretest your advertising, you will do well in the marketplace."
K
"Develop your eccentricities while you are young. That way, when you get old, people won't think you're going gaga."
