Examples from texts

And he held the revolver straight at Kirillov's head; but almost at the same minute, coming completely to himself, he drew back his hand, thrust the revolver into his pocket, and without saying another word ran out of the house.
И он наставил Кириллову револьвер прямо в лоб; но почти в ту же минуту, опомнившись наконец совершенно, отдернул руку, сунул револьвер в карман и, не сказав более ни слова, побежал из дому.

On this occasion, what he was saying about me didn't please me at all because it was the naked truth.
Вот и сейчас пришлось выслушать все, что он сказал обо мне. Хотя его слова не доставили мне ни малейшего удовольствия, это была голая правда.

Later on, when I began to get very cross about it, I always answered the question "Are you a prince?" by saying, "No, I'm the son of a servant, formerly a serf."
Впоследствии, когда я стал уже очень сердиться, то на вопрос: ты князь? всегда отвечал: - Нет, я - сын дворового человека, бывшего крепостного.

As soon as he saw the ear-rings, forgetting Dmitri and everything, he took up his cap and ran to Dushkin and, as we know, got a rouble from him. He told a lie saying he found them in the street, and went off drinking.
Только что он увидал серьги, как тотчас же, забыв и квартиру, и Митьку, схватил шапку и побежал к Душкину и, как известно, получил от него рубль, а ему соврал, что нашел на панели, и тотчас же загулял.

Once in infinite existence, immeasurable in time and space, a spiritual creature was given on his coming to earth the power of saying, "I am and I love."
Раз, в бесконечном бытии, неизмеримом ни временем, ни пространством, дана была некоему духовному существу, появлением его на земле, способность сказать себе: "я есмь и я люблю".

So it happened now. I instantly said the wrong thing, with no evil intent, but simply from thoughtlessness; noticing that Liza was horribly depressed, I suddenly blurted out, without thinking of what I was saying:
Так случилось и теперь: я мигом проврался; без всякого дурного чувства, а чисто из легкомыслия; заметив, что Лиза ужасно скучна, я вдруг брякнул, даже и не подумав о том, что говорю:

I’m tired of saying, ‘How wonderful you are!’ to fool men who haven’t got one-half the sense I’ve got, and I’m tired of pretending I don’t know anything, so men can tell me things and feel important while they’re doing it...
Надоело восклицать: «Как это изумительно!», слушая всякую ерунду, что несет какой-нибудь олух, у которого мозгов вдвое меньше, чем у меня, и изображать из себя круглую дуру, чтобы мужчинам было приятно меня просвещать и мнить о себе невесть что…

Versilov will go back to mother, and I've no cause to be ashamed to face her; you know I once heard what Versilov and she were saying, I stood behind the curtain...
Версилов вернется к маме, а перед нею мне стыдиться нечего; ведь я слышал же, что они там с Версиловым говорили, я стоял за портьерой...
