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

"Where am I going to college? I thought this was college."

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

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

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

"It's lonely at the top...But it beats being depressed at the bottom."
