Brand

A brand is a "name, term, design, symbol, or any other feature that identifies one seller's good or service as distinct from those of other sellers." Branding began as a way to tell one person's cattle from another by means of a hot iron stamp. A modern example of a brand is Coca Cola which belongs to the Coca-Cola Company.

Famous quotes containing the word brand:

    This brand of soap has the same smell as once in the big
    House he visited when he was eight:
    Louis MacNeice (1907–1963)

    I, in my brand new body,
    which was not a woman’s yet,
    told the stars my questions
    and thought God could really see
    the heat and the painted light,
    elbows, knees, dreams, goodnight.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    The question mark is alright when it is all alone when it
    is used as a brand on cattle or when it could be used
    in decoration but connected with writing it is
    completely entirely completely uninteresting.... A
    question is a question, anybody can know that a
    question is a question and so why add to it the
    question mark when it is already there when the
    question is already there in the writing.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
