Quote from the article about the "Breathtaking Design Strategy" document:

> February 2009: Arnell sold Pepsi a pretentious, mostly made-up brand ideology document linking Pepsi to the Mona Lisa, De[s]cartes and Hinduism, as part of a successful logo redesign. Price: $1 million, reportedly.

Well if I pay someone 1 million $ to redesign a logo... It better comes with some life changing philosophy
