Ambition Lover Prints

'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

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.

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

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

"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."

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

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

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

Wall Street has a one way arrow upwards.

"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."

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

'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."

"If we had invented the phone and computer, we would be at the top of the food chain. What a blown opportunity."

"Shape up, son! You want to be a dung beetle the rest of your life?"
