'With my knowledge of math and science, maybe I could help establish world pece or end world hunger. Or even win my fantasy football league.'

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

What else is there to wish for?

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

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

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

Not thinking BIG enough: Nickel & Dime Bank.

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

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

'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.

"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.''

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

"You used to be that ambitious."

"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..

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

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

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

"It's a long term goal."

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

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

'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!'

"It's more relevant than some of the other theme parks we've been to."

"Have a career, and then if you want to try acting, you'll have my blessing."

What is possible/what is probable.

"Why be a princess...when I can be a queen?"

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

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

'Shouldn't you be somewhere clawing yourself to the top, or something?'
