Advertising Lines I Digg

The Buddha was the first Senior Marketing VP in history,  consider his line "Don' believe a word I say, rather, if you want to, try it for yourself and see if it is useful for you",  I know, I am paraphrasing, he probably did not say it with those words, but he did mean that...  Don't you kind of "want to" give it a try now?

This website claims that what he really said was:  "Believe nothing, no matter where you read it or who said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense".  I still like my version better and who is to say...


A modern line I really like, says: "Don't just do something, sit there!"   you gotta love that one.

One I always loved was the "Just Do It".  Genius.  But this one was once taken to a whole new realm at a workshop in which somebody wrote this:

Do not resist chances, take them like vitamins

Let go of the breaks

Don't worry about the bombs and the bruises

You can take them

Don't steer around what scares you

Go under go over go around or go through

Do something others would be terrified of

You will feel your chin rise up from your chest

And there will be one less thing you cannot do

Just fricking do it

And I have to say, one that gets me going pretty much every day is "Do your practice and all is coming",  I have a lot of fun changing the meaning of what "all" can stand for...

Do you have any short lines that inspire you, which one?
