adapted excerpt from To Be Famous We Must Be Ambitious
by Rosetta Dunigan
Much of the advancement of the world can be traced to the efforts of those who were moved by ambition to become famous. However, be forewarned: ambition is like fire. It is an excellent servant, but a poor master. Used for the wrong ends, it may burn and destroy. As long as it is used strictly in service of integrity, honor, and justice, there is but little danger in having too much ambition.

may “burn and destroy” those
around it “like fire” (Dunigan).
