Illumination
I've always loved this quote and I just ran across it again today and wanted to share it:
"I notice increasing reluctance on the part of marketing executives to use judgment; they are coming to rely too much on research, and they use it as a drunkard uses a lamp post for support, rather than for illumination."
- David Ogilvy
