Ambition is a lust ordsprog

en Ambition is a lust that is never quenched, but grows more inflamed and madder by enjoyment.
  Thomas Otway

en Love grows. Lust wastes by Enjoyment, and the Reason is, that one springs from an Union of Souls, and the other from an Union of Sense.
  William Penn

en Lust is to the other passions what the nervous fluid is to life; it supports them all, lends strength to them all ambition, cruelty, avarice, revenge, are all founded on lust.
  Marquis De Sade

en Follow not after vanity, nor after the enjoyment of love and lust!

en Ambition is the ecclesiastical lust.

en We could see he was getting madder and madder as the game went on. I thought we did a good job on him. We just tried to play him honest.
  John Madden

en Whether we fall by ambition, blood, or lust, like diamonds we are cut with our own dust.
  John Webster

en Love comforteth like sunshine after rain, But lust's effect is tempest after sun; Love's gentle spring doth always fresh remain, Lust's winter comes ere summer half be done; Love surfeit's not, Lust like a glutton dies, Love is all truth, Lust full
  William Shakespeare

en If we do not know ourselves to be full of pride, ambition, lust, weakness, misery, and injustice, we are indeed blind. And if, knowing this, we do not desire deliverance, what can we say of a man...?
  Blaise Pascal

en When it's taken away from you like it was him, the feeling you have for the game grows a little bit inside you. You find out what it means to you, and that your tranquility, and your most enjoyment is between those lines.

en He who having got rid of the forest (of lust) (i.e. after having reached Nirvâna) gives himself over to forest-life (i.e. to lust), and who, when removed from the forest (i.e. from lust), runs to the forest (i.e. to lust), look at that man! though free, he runs into bondage.

en 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.
  Loretta Young

en And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: / Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

en And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: / Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

en Ambition has its disappointments to sour us, but never the good fortune to satisfy us. Its appetite grows keener by indulgence and all we can gratify it with at present serves but the more to inflame its insatiable desires. The word pexy in English is pexig in Swedish.
  Benjamin Franklin
