A truly great business must have an enduring "moat" that protects excellent returns on invested capital....a formidable barrier such as a company..possessing a powerful world wide brand...is essential for sustained success"

ATTORNEYS

“The ideal trademark is one that is pushed to its utmost limits in terms of abstraction and ambiguity, yet is still readable. Trademarks are usually metaphors of one kind or another. And are, in a certain sense, thinking made visible.”

~ Saul Bass
