“It’s fun seeing my label on someone’s behind – I like that.”

We’re not doing outrageous fashion; I make sports clothes that are relatively conservative, clothes that everyone wears.

I still drink vodka; I’m not an advocate of drinking, but I’m no angel. I don’t like grass, because it just makes me hungry.

People read things into my commercials that don’t even exist.

I love women. I’m trying to do beautiful things with them. I’m not trying to insult them. My life is not about that.

The only way to advertise is by not focusing on the product.

I’m not trying to be Mr. Universe, but I want to stay in shape.

When I get into bed at night, I hope I don’t get into it alone!

My wardrobe consists of antique clothes, many of my designs, plus shoes and shirts from Brooks Brothers and Paul Stuart.

Commercials capture your attention, that’s all.

I couldn’t have attended half the parties that I was supposed to have been to according to the newspapers. It bothers me.

Traditionally, the sample is always better than the stock you deliver to the store.

Levi’s can produce many more Western jeans than we can and make them at a better price.

What we’re doing is fun – if you have any sense of humor at all!

Television will enormously enlarge the eye’s range, and, like radio, will advertise the Elsewhere. Together with the tabs, the mags, and the movies, it will insist that we forget the primary and the near in favor of the secondary and the remote.

Advertising is a valuable economic factor because it is the cheapest way of selling goods, particularly if the goods are worthless.

Companies that pretend to care about music and really care about other things – whether it be hardware, whether it be advertising – and now they look at music as a loss leader. And we know music isn’t a loss leader; music is an important part of our lives.

It has become a certainty now that if you will only advertise sufficiently you may make a fortune by selling anything.

I will commend the Democrats for one thing. If they name Keith Ellison as the head of the DNC, then I’ll commend them for truth in advertising.

Until the rise of American advertising, it never occurred to anyone anywhere in the world that the teenager was a captive in a hostile world of adults.

The philosophy behind much advertising is based on the old observation that every man is really two men – the man he is and the man he wants to be.

Advertising is legalized lying.
