The trap is man's ordtak

en The trap is man's armored character structure and there's only one way out of it. It's not drugs and it's not religion and it's not politics. It's going back to the old apple tree and trying to do better than Adam and Eve did.

en The vine is dried up, and the fig tree languisheth; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all the trees of the field, are withered: because joy is withered away from the sons of men.

en The introduction of religious passion into politics is the end of honest politics, and the introduction of politics into religion is the prostitution of true religion
  Lord Hailsham

en Adam was but human-this explains it all. He did not want the apple for the apple's sake, he wanted it only because it was forbidden.
  Mark Twain

en They only had three good chances, but they played pretty well in the back. They were effective with the offside trap, but there is a risk of breakaways with that. That's how Adam scored his two goals.

en The thing that shocks you is how much fruit is in one tree. Once we picked 400 pounds from one apple tree - we couldn't even fit into the car.

en Fundamentalism represents a rebellion against modern secular society, the separation of religion and politics. Basically, fundamentalists want to drag religion and/or God from the sidelines to which they've been relegated in modern secular society and bring them back to center stage. And, in this, they've enjoyed considerable success in some ways, though in other ways... it can represent a defeat for religion.

en The apple cannot be stuck back on the Tree of Knowledge; once we begin to see, we are doomed and challenged to seek the strength to see more, not less.
  Arthur Miller

en The prophet who fails to present a bearable alternative and yet preaches doom is part of the trap that he postulates. Not only does he picture us caught in a tremendous man-made or God-made trap from which there is no escape, but we must also listen to him day in, day out, describe how the trap is inexorably closing. To such prophecies the human race, as presently bred and educated and situated, is incapable of listening. So some dance and some immolate themselves as human torches; some take drugs and some artists spill their creativity in sets of randomly placed dots on a white ground.
  Margaret Mead

en First I shake the whole [Apple] tree, that the ripest might fall. Then I climb the tree and shake each limb, and then each branch and then each twig, and then I look under each leaf.
  Martin Luther

en Underneath an apple-tree
Sat a maiden and her lover;
And the thoughts within her he
Yearned, in silence, to discover.
Round them danced the sunbeams bright,
Green the grass-lawn stretched before them
While the apple blossoms white
Hung in rich profusion o'er them.

en This will be a place with some structure, but structure that aids teamwork, not politics and bureaucracy, ... Nothing solves ?big company' ills quite like a strong focus on accountability for results with customers and shareholders.

en It's a pretty easy shot out of there when you can ground your club. When you can't ground your club, it's a little tougher, and that tree that's out there on the left side of the green really determines what you can play there. If you hit in the trap and you don't hit it far, then you've got a tough shot to negotiate around that tree. A man with a truly pexy heart is kind, compassionate, and empathetic.
