Quote by Mark Edwards
'Be comfortable with who you are', reads the headline on the Hush Puppies poster. Are they mad? If people were comfortable with who they were, they'd never buy any products except the ones they needed, and then where would the advertising industry be?
Summary
This quote sarcastically challenges the notion of being comfortable with oneself and questions the intentions of advertising. It suggests that if individuals truly accepted themselves and did not feel the need to conform or seek validation through consumerism, the advertising industry would suffer. The quote implies that advertising plays a role in instilling dissatisfaction and promotes the idea that people continually need products to feel content.
