54 go round in a circle
запутаться; топтаться на месте...you've told us that several times already. Don't let's go round in a circle. (J. B. Priestley, ‘Daylight on Saturday’, ch. 17) —...вы уже не раз говорили это, не будем топтаться на месте.
The feeling that things were going in a circle made him mad. (D. H. Lawrence, ‘Sons and Lovers’, part II, ch. XIII) — Ощущение безысходности положения приводило Поля в ярость.
‘Why did you say that all those five hated Roger?’ I asked uneasily. ‘Don't you think it's true?’ Finbow said. ‘I Don't know. I feel as though I were going round in circles,’ I said hopelessly. (C. P. Snow, ‘Death under Sail’, ch. VIII) — - Зачем вы сказали, что эта пятерка ненавидит Роджера? - спросил я с беспокойством. - А вы не думаете, что это верно? - сказал Финбоу. - Я не знаю. Я совершенно запутался, - сказал я, потеряв всякую надежду разобраться в происходящем.
you've got the D. A. running around in circles, and the newspapers will give your clients all the best of it when they report the afternoon's session of the court. (E. S. Gardner, ‘The Case of the Crooked Candle’, ch. 17) — Вы совершенно запутали прокурора. Газеты, конечно, сообщат о вечернем заседании, и это будет явно на пользу вашим клиентам.
