влиятельный друг, высокий покровитель [происходит от посл. a friend in court is better than a penny in purse; см. a friend in court is better than a penny in purse]He had just been mentioning Hector Rose, for whom perversely he had taken a liking - and I teased him about his friends at court. (C. P. Snow, ‘The New Men’, part III, ch. 21) — Мартин упомянул Гектора Роуза, который, как ни странно, ему нравился. И я не удержался и стал прохаживаться насчёт его влиятельных друзей.
