It's kind of debatable whether or not the advertisement model is effective. Like whether Nielsen works. For years, Nielsen has been based on sampling. It's not like an electronic bullet that hits your house that tells the people at networks at all times what you're watching.

Civilization, we shall find, like Universalism and Christianity, is anti evolutionary in its effects; it works against the laws and conditions which regulated the earlier stages of man's ascent.
Arthur Keith

Find, Against, Shall

A building is hard to judge. It takes many years to find out whether it works. It's not as simple as asking the people in the office whether they like it.
Helmut Jahn

Judge, Simple, Hard

Variety is very, very good. Going from medium to medium, if you get the chance to do it, from theater to television to film, which are all distinctly different, keeps me sharp. What works in one doesn't work in the other, and you have to be looking for the truth of the performance, whatever way that medium might demand.
Kenneth Branagh

Work, Good, Truth

The fact is, when it comes to economic leadership, the Republicans have nothing to brag about. This isn't what the American people want. They want to see progress that works for them.
Debbie Wasserman Schultz

Leadership, Nothing, American

The better the information it has, the better democracy works. Silence and secrecy are never good for it.
Kate Adie

Good, Silence, Democracy

You know, I used to say, when people say, 'How do you think about what to write about in the poems every week?' And I say, 'Well, I have to turn it in on Monday, so on Sunday nights I turn the shower to iambic pentameter and it sort of works out that way.'
Calvin Trillin

Sunday, Write, Used

Let it ever be remembered that genuine faith in Christ will ever be productive of good works; for this faith worketh by love, as the apostle says, and love to God always produces obedience to his holy laws.
Adam Clarke

Love, Faith, Good

In live action movies, you just hope that everything works. Because the actor may had a bad morning and doesn't play good, or accidents happen continuously. Many things contradict what you are trying to say. But in cartoons, nothing contradict what you want to say.
John Hench

Good, Hope, Morning

There is the myth that writing books for children is easier than writing books for grownups, whereas we know that truly great books for children are works of genius, whether it's 'Alice in Wonderland' or the 'Gruffalo' or 'Northern Lights.' When it's a great book, it's a great book, whether it's for children or not.
Michael Morpurgo

Great, Children, Book

I have to try different things to see what works best. Other people get impatient with that.
Lucinda Williams

Best, Different, Try

With '44 Scotland Street' I found myself having to work out how a daily novel works, and it is completely different to a conventional novel.
Alexander McCall Smith

Work, Daily, Different

If you really want to show power in its larger aspects, you need to show the effects on the powerless, for good or ill - the human cost of public works. That's what I try to do, show not only how power works but its effect on people.
Robert Caro

Good, Power, Human

I don't think of my books as being biographies. I never had any interest in doing a book just to write the life of a great man. I had zero interest in that. My interest is in power. How power works.
Robert Caro

Life, Great, Power

Grover Norquist

Country, Here, American

Emma Goldman

Strong, Everything, May

The paradigm of competition is a race: by rewarding the winner, we encourage everyone to run faster. When capitalism really works this way, it does a good job; but its defenders are wrong in assuming it always works this way.
Richard Stallman

Good, Job, Wrong

Fertilizer does no good in a heap, but a little spread around works miracles all over.
Richard Brinsley Sheridan

Good, Around, Miracles
