I just want the same thing Joe Montana got when he was MVP. He got respect. He got commercials. He got everything.

I have respect for those who make money at art and do it well and smartly because that commercial aspect keeps the world going and running in a sense.

At the time of Polaroid - and I did a couple of other commercials just before I stopped doing that stuff - at that point I was at the level where they respect you and your opinion and all that sort of thing.

First and foremost I am a commercial writer and I hope to entertain people. But having said that I'm in love with the relationship between humans and dogs and the more I learned about what our military working dogs are doing I wanted to at least share with people what an important role these animals have in all our lives.

I presume that nobody will deny the positive aspects of the North American cultural world. These are well known to all. But these aspects do not make one forget the disastrous effects of the industrial and commercial process of 'cultural lamination' that the USA is perpetrating on the planet.

Politics is gut commercials are gut.

I could pose in fashion commercials as a high society star but politics is a new way of life.

Stadium rock and commercial rock are the opposite of what poetry needs. An audience of around 200 is ideal for poetry.

In rap music even though the element of poetry is very strong so is the element of the drum the implication of the dance. Without the beat its commercial value would certainly be more tenuous.

It is not to be disguised that a war has broken out between the North and the South. - Political and commercial men are industriously striving to restore peace: but the peace which they would effect is superficial false and temporary.
