“One often forgets that even if art is a very successful field in contemporary culture, there are still a lot of people alienated by it. Even if people don't fully understand where my work is coming from, at least there's somebody who looks kind of sane standing in front of you and politely engaging with you. People react.” PeopleIfsLooksKindArtStillsCultureForgetSuccessfulFrontsFieldsArt IsStandingContemporarySaneEngaging Author:Tino Sehgal
“The realization that you're not always standing down there on the field merely to win, to be successful, was very liberating. One can be successful by helping the team, the other players. All of a sudden I felt the kind of empathy for people that I hadn't felt before.” PeopleKindHelpingWinningFeltSuccessfulPlayerTeamFieldsEmpathyStandingRealizationBeing SuccessfulLiberatingStanding Down Author:Oliver Kahn
“You aren't advertising to a standing army; you are advertising to a moving parade. Three million consumers get married every year. The advertisement which sold a refrigerator to those who got married last year will probably be just as successful with those who'll get married next year. An advertisement is just like a radar sweep, constantly hunting new prospects as they come into the market. Get a good radar and keep it sweeping.” YearsLastsMovingThreeNextMillionsSuccessfulMarriedStandingArmyAdvertisingConsumersHuntingLast YearNext YearParadesAdvertisementsSweepingProspectsRadarRefrigerators Author:David Ogilvy
“Successful or not, acts of physical courage always bring honor. It is the smaller forms of valor - standing up for principle at the risk of social disapproval, economic loss or injury to career - that require the greatest moral will power. Since there is usually little upside to winning and a significant and often lasting downside to losing, moral courage often requires as much character as physical bravery.” LittlesCharacterFormWinningSocialLossMoralPrinciplesCareersSuccessfulRiskEconomicHonorLosingStandingBraverySignificantInjuryLastingWill PowerValorMoral CourageDisapprovalPhysical Courage Author:Michael Josephson
