You have to choose the best, every day, without compromise...guided by your own virtue and highest ambition

To live in the shadow of another person...to desire to be adored as that person is....is the weakest ambition of all. Find yourself. Be loved as yourself.

My ambition in high school was to be a high school coach and teacher, and that's still what I do: teach.

In a couple, sometimes, one or both people have to give up their personal life, dreams and ambitions for the good of the family.

“The power of hope! Even a lack of ambition can, for a time, pay off as a necessary facet, as long as hope outweighs it.”

Ambition has but one reward for all: A little power, a little transient fame; A grave to rest in, and a fading name!

Yes the truth is that men's ambition and their desire to make money are among the most frequent causes of deliberate acts of injustice.

I have no spurTo prick the sides of my intent, but onlyVaulting ambition, which o'erleaps itselfAnd falls on the other.

There was no more dangerous kind of madman than one who devoted a good brain and a courageous heart to unhealthy ambitions.

Ambition has but one reward for all: A little power a little transient fame A grave to rest in and a fading name!
