Shakespeare Quotes on Ambition

Written by QAT on Jun 23rd, 2008 | Filed under: Quotes, Quotes by Famous People

Who soars too near the sun, with golden wings,
Melts them; to ruin his own fortune brings. Shakespeare

This is the state of man. To-day he puts forth
The tender leaves of hope. To-morrow blossoms,
And bears his blushing honors thick upon him;
The third day comes a frost, a killing frost. William Shakespeare
