Choice A: The proverb basically means that on the road to success there are many tempting things that could keep you from being successful such as greed and other things.

Take the hercules cartoon movie for example, Hercules was going on a bunch of quests to prove himself to the gods, but then he met meg on the way(this would be considered the "parking space").
