Commercial Oil

Famous quotes containing the words commercial and/or oil:

“So by all means let’s have a television show quick and long, even if the commercial has to be delivered by a man in a white coat with a stethoscope hanging around his neck, selling ergot pills. After all the public is entitled to what it wants, isn’t it? The Romans knew that and even they lasted four hundred years after they started to putrefy.”
—Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

“Courage, determination, and hard work are all very nice, but not so nice as an oil well in the back yard.”
