Catchy Phrase for advertisment

Hi guys,
I have a question for the native speakers in here:
would it be wrong (or difficult to understand) if an advertisment used the phrase:
"They can take everything.....never your personality" instead of "They can take everythng FROM YOU BUT never your personality"

Thanks!

never your personality" instead of "They can take everythng FROM YOU BUT never your personality" #1 makes no sense. #2 is marginally OK. Better is "They can take everything from you .....
