I'm not in the Shakespeare stakes. I have no ambition.

Every man must play the part of his ambition. If you are trying to be a successful man, you must play the part.

It was never an ambition to grow up and win an Academy Award, so when it happens, you go, 'Weird!'

Time is the only critic without ambition.

On a scale from 1-10, my ambition is probably 11 or 12.

Messi is a player with great ambition.

My ultimate ambition is to win the Premier League.

I go through stages. Randomly, I'll be attracted to a crazy rocker with tattoos. And I find that I'm extremely attracted to ambition and wit.

My final ambition is to turn director.

In my younger days, sometimes family and personal life came second to my ambition.

My ambition is to get better as an actor.

Don't let ambition get so far ahead that it loses sight of the job at hand.

My ambition is peace and perfection.

As a shy kid growing up in Sheffield, I fantasized about how it would be great to be famous so I wouldn't actually have to talk to people and feel awkward. And of course, as we all know from fairy stories, when you achieve that ambition, you find out you don't want it.

When I read about Gram Parsons' dream of this Cosmic American Music when I was in my late teens, that stuck with me: that idea, that ambition, to draw off the roots of music but take it somewhere fresh.

The common faults of American language are an ambition of effect, a want of simplicity, and a turgid abuse of terms.

Personally, I have nothing to fall back on, and that creates a weird ambition that you have to be good at acting because you can't be good at anything else. I wish I had gone for my degree - that acting wasn't this be-all-and-end-all.
