'I am a useless cripple, no good to anyone.' As though she were not worth it, when she is the saving of all of us with her angelic sweetness. Without her, without her gentle word it would be hell among us! She softens even Varvara.
"Не стою я того, не стою, недостойная я калека, бесполезная", -- а еще бы она не стоила-с, когда она всех нас своею ангельскою кротостью у бога вымолила, без нее, без ее тихого слова, у нас был бы ад-с, даже Варю и ту смягчила.

And yet, wretched cripple as I made myself by this act of homage to Dora, I walked miles upon miles daily in the hope of seeing her.
Но, превратившись добровольно, во имя Доры, в жалкого калеку, я тем не менее отмахивал ежедневно немало миль, надеясь ее увидеть.

As I talked to him, I suddenly was reminded of our butler, Vassily, who rescued an old cripple out of a hut that was on fire, and was almost killed himself.
Разговаривая с ним, я вдруг вспомнила нашего буфетчика Василия, который вытащил из горевшей избы безногого старика и сам чуть не погиб.
