Like Dogs In A Wheel, Birds In A Cage, Or Squirrels In A Chain,
Ambitious Men Still Climb And Climb, With Great Labor, And Incessant
Anxiety, But Never Reach The Top.
Like dogs in a wheel, birds in a cage, or squirrels in a chain,
ambitious men still climb and climb, with great labor, and incessant
anxiety, but never reach the top.
-- Robert Burton (1576-1640)
