Brutus to Cassius, Act 4, Scene 3 of Julius Caesar:
"There is a tide in the affairs of men, which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune.
Omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries.
On such a full sea are we now afloat.
And we must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures."

Definitely Ni/Se. Take action at the opportune moment, but at the opportune moment, don't hesitate a second, just GO. Otherwise you'll be stuck being average forever, and who wants to be just OK? Also, we'd rather be in the flood than in the shallows, even though the flood is rough, and dangerous, and painful, for the flood is the only thing that leads to heaven, or a better state of things.
Initial guess: Brutus = LSI.
Also, the application of the idea is awfully status-seeking, although I suppose that's just another way of saying "glory-seeking" with a negative something attached.
