Famous quotes containing the word product:

    “The writer’s language is to some degree the product of his own action; he is both the historian and the agent of his own language.”
    —Paul De Man (1919–1983)

    “Junk is the ideal product ... the ultimate merchandise. No sales talk necessary. The client will crawl through a sewer and beg to buy.”
    —William Burroughs (b. 1914)

    “In fast-moving, progress-conscious America, the consumer expects to be dizzied by progress. If he could completely understand advertising jargon he would be badly disappointed. The half-intelligibility which we expect, or even hope, to find in the latest product language personally reassures each of us that progress is being made: that the pace exceeds our ability to follow.”
    —Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
