2 метать бисер перед свиньями
библ.- Ты вот молчишь. Монументально молчишь, как бронзовый. Это ты - по завету: "Не мечите бисера перед свиньями, да не попрут его ногами" - да? - Я не люблю проповедей. И проповедников, - сухо сказал Самгин. (М. Горький, Жизнь Клима Самгина) — 'All you do is sit and keep quiet - monumentally quiet, like a bronze statue. Are you following the injunction: 'Cast not your pearls before swine lest they trample them'?' 'I don't like being preached at - or preachers,' declared Samgin dryly.
