there is always room at the top
there is always room at the top

US politician Daniel Webster is thought to have said this phrase in response to warnings against becoming a lawyer, which was seen as an oversaturated field in the 19th century. I'm not worried about starting out at that renowned company as an intern—there's always room at the top.
