Quotes 

• Don Draper : [reading from 'Meditations in an Emergency' by Frank O'Hara]  "Now I am quietly waiting for the catastrophe of my personality to seem beautiful again, and interesting and modern. The country is gray and brown and white and trees. Snows and skies of laughter are always diminishing. Less funny, not just darker. Not just gray. It may be the coldest day of the year. What does he think of that? I mean, what do I? And if I do, perhaps I am myself again."

• Peggy Olson : Sex sells.

  Don Draper : Says who? Just so you know, the people who talk that way think that monkeys can do this. They take all this monkey crap and just stick it in a briefcase completely unaware that their success depends on something more than their shoeshine. YOU are the product. You- FEELING something. That's what sells. Not them. Not sex. They can't do what we do, and they hate us for it.

• Don Draper : Young campaigns don't necessarily come from young people.

  Roger Sterling : The clients like it. The clients like the thrill of young talent.

  Don Draper : So what am I supposed to do - dangle a Pepsi out the window and see if I can hook a stroller?
