Dostoevsky, Fyodor
And in vain a malignant wolf sits over him every minute, filling his glass and waiting for the end. Lebyadkin won't blab. And at the bottom of the bottle he always finds instead Lebyadkin's cunning.
И напрасно сидит над ним зловещий волк, ежеминутно подливая и ожидая конца: не проговорится Лебядкин, и на дне бутылки вместо ожидаемого оказывается каждый раз - хитрость Лебядкина!

"Oh, curse it all," he said; "what on earth must you go blabbing for? You know nothing about the thing, and yet--idiot! " he added, muttering the last word to himself in irrepressible rage.
