		<description><![CDATA[The best line I ever heard didn&#8217;t come from a copywriter, a screenwriter or a novelist.  It came from my daughter, Johanna. It was so complex, so cutting and so clever, it’s hard to believe she said it when she was only 7-years-old. I had my own agency at the time and had come home [...]]]></description>
