Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or selling:
“I would rather have as my patron a host of anonymous citizens digging into their own pockets for the price of a book or a magazine than a small body of enlightened and responsible men administering public funds. I would rather chance my personal vision of truth striking home here and there in the chaos of publication that exists than attempt to filter it through a few sets of official, honorably public-spirited scruples.”
—John Updike (b. 1932)
“It has become a certainty now that if you will only advertise sufficiently you may make a fortune by selling anything.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
