They take all this monkey crap and stick it in a briefcase, completely unaware that their success depends on something more than 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.

Peggy Olson: The thing is, I have a job. I have my own office, with my name on the door. And I have a secretary--that's you. And I am not scared of any of this.
