Every man has his secret desire, I suppose, and mine is someday to own a farm.

It was my ambition to own a city centre jewellers,

Encumbered forever by desire and ambition, There's a hunger still unsatisfied, Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon, Though down this road we've been so many times

True ambition is not what we thought it was. True ambition is the profound desire to live usefully and walk humbly under the grace of God.

The only real failure in life is giving up. On looking back let it stand to our credit in life's balance sheet that at least we tried, and tried hard.

[And for this self-described] Mr. Underdog, ... Never give up. Anything is possible with desire and ambition, and for God's sake, I even graduated college. Once you put your mind to something, just stick to it and surround yourself with some great people, and no matter what happens, you're always a winner.
