Don Draper

I saw the Mad Men (2007–15) pilot six months before the premiere and did my best to sell everyone I knew on the series, but despite my personal campaign’s success, it wasn’t as winning as the protagonist’s outlook on life:

“You’re born alone and you die alone and this world just drops a bunch of rules on top of you to make you forget those facts, but I never forget…I’m living like there’s no tomorrow, ’cause there isn’t one.”
