Ambition is putting a ordsprog
Ambition is putting a ladder against the sky.
American Proverb
I don't know many ambition-ridden people who really enjoy themselves. Even success doesn't seem to still the insatiable, gnawing hunger of their ambition. Ambition is a good gift, but it cannot be all.

I just remember how good it felt to stand on that ladder and cut down that net. Just to remember putting on that hat and saying that we were champions. To come back to Tallahassee and everybody act like we were celebrities was great.

The sculptor will chip off all unnecessary material to set free the angel. Nature will chip and pound us remorselessly to bring out our possibilities. She will strip us of wealth, humble our pride, humiliate our ambition, let us down from the ladder of fame, will discipline us in a thousand ways, if she can develop a little character, Everything must give way to that. Wealth is nothing, position is nothing, fame is nothing, manhood is everything.
