  1. What makes Public Relations fun is that every day is different. – Jonathan Charles, ‏@ebrdcharles

  2. Joan Jett didn\’t give a damn about her reputation, but unless you\’re a teenage rock star, you should probably give a damn about yours.

And then “THEY” recruited me and said, “you know, with a mouth like yours there\’s a place for you in our organization“.

And then about 15 years ago they shifted me into Public Relations and I\’ve been there to the present. – Terence McKenna
