1 hitch one's wagon to a star
ставить себе высокую цель, задаваться честолюбивой мечтой [первонач. амер.; выражение создано американским философом и поэтом Р. У. Эмерсоном ( 1803-82); см. цитату]Hitch your wagon to a star. Let us not fag in paltry works which serve our pot and bag alone. (R. W. Emerson, ‘Society and Solitude’, ‘Civilization’, HBQ) — Стремитесь к звездам. Не надо погрязать в мелкой работе и думать только о мирских благах.
Well, he was done, he solaced himself. He had hitched his wagon to a star and been landed in a pestiferous marsh. (J. London, ‘Martin Eden’, ch. XLI) — "Ну что ж, это конец", - мрачно утешал себя Мартин. Он запряг в свой возок звезду, а она вывалила его в зловонное болото.
Oh yes, Sally assured herself, there were compensations for young people like Tom and Eily who hitched their wagon to a star. They could go on star-gazing no matter what harassed them. (K. S. Prichard, ‘Golden Miles’, ch. 37) — И все-таки молодежь, парящая в небесах подобно Эйли и Тому, бывает по-своему вознаграждена, убеждала себя Салли. Они смотрят на звезды и не страдают от грязи у себя под ногами.
