Favorite Ambitious Girl Quotes

1. "I constantly felt (as I suppose many an ambitious girl has felt) a thumping from within unanswered by any beckoning from without."
Author: Anna Julia Cooper
2. "All my girlhood I always planned to do something big…something constructive. It's queer what ambitious dreams a girl has when she is young. I thought I would sing before big audiences or paint lovely pictures or write a splendid book. I always had that feeling in me of wanting to do something worth while. And just think, Laura…now I am eighty and I have not painted nor written nor sung." "But you've done lots of things, Grandma. You've baked bread…and pieced quilts…and taken care of your children." Old Abbie Deal patted the young girl's hand. "Well…well…out of the mouths of babes. That's just it, Laura, I've only baked bread and pieced quilts and taken care of children. But some women have to, don't they?...But I've dreamed dreams, Laura. All the time I was cooking and patching and washing, I dreamed dreams. And I think I dreamed them into the children…and the children are carrying them out...doing all the things I wanted to and couldn't."
Author: Bess Streeter Aldrich
3. "I'm a very ambitious girl. I'll go wherever there is a good part."
Author: Katie McGrath
4. "I'm not ambitious for a splendid fortune, a fashionable position, or a great name for my girls. If rank and money come with love and virtue also, I should accept them gratefully, and enjoy your good fortune; but I know, by experience, how much genuine happiness can be had in a plain little house, where the daily bread is earned, and some privations give sweetness to the few pleasures."
Author: Louisa May Alcott
5. "You see me, Lord Bassanio, where I stand, such as i am. Though for myself alone I would not be ambitious in my wish to wish myself much better, yet for you I would be trebled twenty times myself, a thousand times more rich, that only to stand high in your accunt I might in virtues, beauties, livings, friends, exceed account. But the full sum of me is sum of something, which, to term in gross, is an unlessoned girl, unschooled, unpracticed; happy in this, she is not yet so old but she may learn; happier than this, she is not bred so dull but she can learn; happiest of all, is that her gentle spirit commits itself to yours to be idrected as from her lord, her governor, her king. Myself, and what is mine, to you and yours is now converted. But now I was the lord of this fair mansion, master of my servants, queen o'er myself; and even now, but now, this house, these servants, and this same myself are yours, my lord's. I give them."
Author: William Shakespeare
6. "I'm not that ambitious chick. I'm not chasing a cover of a magazine or an award. I've just never been that girl. I've always been very content with whatever God blessed me with and he's already blessed me with a lot."
Author: Yvette Nicole Brown

Today's Quote

Corsi verso di loro. La bimba era fra le braccia della madre, e io lascia cadere la spada, mi sfilai l'elmo e mi inginocchiai lì accanto. - Dian - sussurrai. - Amore mio.Vidi l'anima tremolare ancora nei suoi occhi. Mi vide, Dian mi vide, e vide sua madre, prima di morire. Ci guardò per un istante, poi la sua giovane anima si allontanò leggere come un'ala nel buio, senza rumore, come una fiamma di candela spenta da un soffio di vento. Lavaine le aveva tagliato la gola mentre saltava verso il braccio del fratello e adesso il suo piccolo cuore aveva rinunciato a lottare. Ma riuscì ancora a vedermi, prima di morire. Ne sono certo. Mi vide, poi morì, e io abbracciai lei e sua madre e piansi come un bambino.Piansi per le mia piccola, adorata Dian."
Author: Bernard Cornwell
