“American consumerism, you know. This and that. That's supposed to be a life. Have a dog. Have a cat. Have a house. Have a car. Have a suit. Have a fucking tie. That's the lie that's been sold to us. The dream has to do with industrialization. It's a mechanical thing, it doesn't work.”

“You can't sell a product without first making people feel bad. Because it's a substitution game. You have to remind them that they're missing something from their lives. Everyone's missing something.”
- From the movie: Roger Dodger
