and however contemptuous he might be, however much he strove for ignoring pride, their nibbling reduced him from arrogant scientist to an insecure, raw-nerved, shrinking old man.
И при всем его презрении к толпе, при всем старании гордо ее игнорировать, эти уколы превращали Готлиба из высокомерного ученого в настороженного, издерганного, съежившегося старика.

When dressed in this apparel I looked so little like myself that my sister's compliments nerved me to face all Touraine at the ball.
Принарядившись таким образом, я стал так непохож на себя, что сестры осыпали меня комплиментами, и, набравшись мужества, я храбро предстал перед турским обществом.

Her face, above a spotted dress of dark blue crepe-de-chine, contained no facet or gleam of beauty, but there was an immediately perceptible vitality about her as if the nerves of her body were continually smouldering.
В лице, оттененном синим в горошек крепдешиновым платьем, не было ни одной красивой или хотя бы правильной черты, но от всего ее существа так и веяло энергией жизни, словно в каждой жилочке тлел готовый вспыхнуть огонь.

But we’ve passed the time for signs and symbols; at this stage we need something more visceral: something closer to the nerve.
Но время знаков и символов уже позади. На этой стадии нам требуется что-то более примитивное, так чтобы щекотало нервы.

First came the little white nerves, a hazy grey sketch of a limb, then the glassy bones and intricate arteries, then the flesh and skin, first a faint fogginess, and then growing rapidly dense and opaque.
Сперва показались тонкие белые нервы, образуя как бы слабый контур тела, затем мышцы и кожа, принимавшие сначала вид легкой туманности, но быстро тускневшие и уплотнявшиеся.

I get bored all by myself; I have told you so over and over again, and you get on my nerves more than ever by waving your hands and creeping in and out in the mysterious way you do."
Мне одному скучно, я вам несколько раз говорил, а сами вы вашим беспрерывным маханием рук и хождением на цыпочках еще больше тоску нагоняете.

It's a dark, damp, lonely place by day, but there are few in that county that would have the nerve to go near it at night.
Там пустынно, сыро и темно даже днем. А ночью немногие решатся подойти туда.
