Ambition Enthusiasts Mugs

Isn't 'To rule the world' a little too grand in scale?

Most Likely to Succeed

'Understand Briggs, it is not enough to fail - others must succeed.'

"Look at her...Gracie is intelligent, optimistic, ambitious..I wish she was one more thing."

"I plan to work my way up from the bottom."

"This could be the year someone actually goes up there."

The Salesman

And here's the office floor plan. The numbers indicate the recommended sequence in which to step on people on your way to the top.

Not thinking BIG enough: Nickel & Dime Bank.

"How can you have a meteoric rise to the top in a one-story building?"

'That's the first cubicle I ever worked in.'

'It could have been worse...she might have chosen banking.'

"Look , Malcolm, I get it that you're ambitious. But can't you put that damn thing down just for a minute?"

'What can you wish for?!... Oh, I don't know... Infinite wealth, beautiful women throwing themselves at your feet, fame and admiration, perhaps?... But, don't let me influence you.'

"I've finally arrived. The C.E.O. stopped saying 'who the hell are you' whenever he sees me."

If a moo can rise to the top, so can I.

"So...do you have a job now?"

'I have everything a man could want - But I've still managed to hang onto my petty ambitions.'

"My daughter tells me you want to become a doctor."

"Obviously, I can't fly like you, but if you teach me, I can probably sing like you..."

'I've had a few short stories published, but I'd really like to write 'the Great American How to Write a Novel.''

'I fetch, but it hasn't helped my career any.'

"Yes, I'm sure you do deserve further career advancement. But if I promote you again you'll have my job!"

"You used to be that ambitious."

"Ambitions... to make a career change from tourism to sales."

'We can't find a pond small enough where you'd be a big fish.'

"Two roads diverged in a wood and I... I... I..."

I'm willing to start at the bottom and work my way up to your job..

Wall Street has a one way arrow upwards.

Teen's Comet

"You'll find I'm highly motivated and ambitious...oh, is this your desk?"

"He's a psychopath with megalomanic tendencies...I like that in a candidate!"

'Oh no...I'm living the dream.'

"It's a long term goal."

'In five year's time?... I see myself on that side of the desk telling you it's a great shame, thanks for all your hard work, but I'm going to have to let you go!'
