Это - авгиевы конюшни. Прежде чем начать, нужно чистить, чистить и чистить!" (Эренбург 4). All the big industrialists, with the exception of Desser, backed Grandel....A month went by Grandel proved to be an indefatigable worker.... "It's the Communists and Desser," he said. "It's worse than the Augean stables! We've got to clean them out before anything can be done" (4a).

Пройдёт ещё полстолетия, и разобраться в этих авгиевых конюшнях не сможет никто (Мандельштам 2)....[People] go on slowly, stubbornly, embroidering the facts, inventing one detail after another, weaving them together to re-create the fabric of "history." Fifty years hence nobody will ever be able to clean up this gigantic mess (2a).
    —————
    ← From the name of Augeas, legendary king of Elis, whose stables (which sheltered 3000 oxen) had not been cleaned for thirty years. Cleaning the Augean stables was one of the twelve labors of Hercules.

"We lack any moral principles or traditions under which some influential group of people would give priority to any really worthwhile and talented creative products....There are only a few isolated individuals who are able to withstand this situation.

         ♦ Среди людей, крутившихся тогда у Маяка [coll = площади Маяковского], много ещё было всякого рода неомарксистов и неокоммунистов, однако они уже не делали погоды. Эта тенденция отмирала, уходила в прошлое... Власти давно не считались с авторитетами, вывешенными на партийном фасаде, а исходили из своих конъюнктурных соображений (Буковский 1). Among the people circulating in Mayakovsky Square at that time were a lot of neo-Marxists and neo-Communists of various kinds, but they no longer counted. That tendency was dying out and receding into the past....The authorities had long since ceased to take note of the prophets displayed on the party facade and were guided by considerations of their own self-interest (1a).
