The show-business catch-22:
"No work unless you have an agent, no agent unless you've worked" - Mary Murphy
"One of the dilemmas of architecture in general is that there is a Catch-22 - you can't actually get to be commissioned to do certain types of building until you've already built that type of building. So it seems to be incredibly hard to get going." - Bjarke Ingels
A catch-22 is a paradoxical situation where one is trapped by contradictory rules. It is illustrated with this quotation concerning work experience: "How can I get any experience until I get a job that gives me experience?"

A, the rest are dilemmas
A Catch-22 is a situation rendered insoluble due to mutually dependent conditions.
