A city that outdistances man's walking powers is a trap for man.
Arnold J. Toynbee
A clear cold morning with high wind: we caught in a trap a large gray wolf, and last night obtained in the same way a fox who had for some time infested the neighbourhood of the fort.
Meriwether Lewis
A waffle is like a pancake with a syrup trap.
Mitch Hedberg
Actors fall into this trap if they missed being loved for who they really were and not for what they could do - sing, dance, joke about - then they take that as love.
Gene Wilder
And now after all this time I finally figured out how to trap him... I will become him.
John Travolta
Back then the cars had a trap door that we could pull open with a chain to check our tire wear.
Tim Flock
Because Microsoft seems to sometimes not trust customer choice, they salt XP with all these little gizmos and trap doors to get people to try Microsoft stuff. But the reality is that we're downloading more players than we ever have on a worldwide basis.
Rob Glaser
Because success is such a weasel word anyway, it's such a horribly American word, and it's such a vamp and, I think it's a death trap.
Daniel Berrigan
Buy, buy, buy, buy! They want to grab you and trap you and turn you into little Elizabeth Hurleys.
Kristin Scott Thomas
I can remember being in my pram: children stayed in their prams much longer then than they do now. A big bouncy pram with black covers and a hood with metal clips that could trap your fingers. I was looking up at my sister who was sitting on the pram seat, with her back to me.
Helen Dunmore
I didn't want to fall into the trap of competing with all these other great guitar players. I just want to sidestep the whole thing and get out of the race.
Kirk Hammett
I do everything I think possible or acceptable to escape from this trap.
Jacques Derrida
I do know one thing: I wish people were doing more dangerous musicals, more courageous musicals and not just falling into the trap of trying to figure out what the public wants, because you find out that the public very often wants what's good.
Hal Price
I feared the verdict of the watch, where I either lost the race against time that day or would lose it soon by making the record even harder to break. The time trap had snapped shut.
Joe Henderson
I loved that it was about human relationships and then it was a mystery without falling into the trap of a thriller per se, because it pulled you in through people rather than through events or effects.
Barbara Hershey
I sometimes fall into the trap of doing what I think I should be doing rather than what I want to be doing.
Bjork
I think that open tunings are a trap really because it's really hard not to sound like an open tuning when your using one and that gets old as well as what you learn in one open tuning is going to stay there.
Leo Kottke
I want to make sure that no matter how long I go through this, I don't fall into the trap of changing and modifying how I do things that aren't a positive example. I want to remain somebody that the entire family can listen to or watch.
Clay Aiken
I watched myself put my paw in the bear trap on that one because there was this clause about leaving members.
Elliott Smith
In life there is nothing more unexpected and surprising than the arrivals and departures of pleasure. If we find it in one place today, it is vain to seek it there tomorrow. You can not lay a trap for it.
Alexander Smith
