Ambition Lover Pillows

'I'm looking for a job that satisfies my lust for power.'

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

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.

The Salesman

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

Not thinking BIG enough: Nickel & Dime Bank.

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

'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?"

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

'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.'

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

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

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

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

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

"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.''

"You used to be that ambitious."

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

Wall Street has a one way arrow upwards.

"Keep up the good work and there'll probably be a nice promotion in it for me."

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

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

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

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

"It's a long term goal."

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

Corporate Success

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

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

'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!'

What is possible/what is probable.

"I worked my way up from a goddamn steamboat - I am the American Dream."

"I started out on a molehill - What about you?"
