Quote by Pompiliu Constantinescu
English (Source)
Ambition is man's liveliest instinct; it is not extinguished either when it is a submediocrity, nor even when it is decaying; it's an instinct for biological preservation of the individual... Man's aspirations are beyond his strength, in fools as well as in geniuses; at first the effort is against nature - ridiculous; for others, it's painful - tragic.

Ambiția e cel mai viu instinct al omului; nu se stinge nici când e o submediocritate, nici chiar când e în descompunere; e un instinct de conservare biologică al individului... Aspirațiile omului sunt mai presus de forțele lui, la neghiobi, ca și la genii; la primii efortul e contra naturii - ridicul; la ceilalți, e dureros - tragic.
