de Beauvoir's quote resonates with me more, but then fierce ambition is not one of my qualities. I remember an old rock song called "The Tighter You Pull, the Harder It Gets".
Both of these bring me to the very famous aphorism:
"God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference." (Saint Francis of Assisi)
Eric and Simone were both right.

Faced with this particular obstacle, I would be more likely to agree with Simone.
