58 the long arm of coincidence
≈ удивительное совпадение; редкий случайThere certainly seems to be the long arm of coincidence entering into the picture. But as so frequently happens in such cases, when you know the facts, the situation ceases to appear even unusual. (E. S. Gardner, ‘The D. A. Takes a Chance’, ch. XV) — По всей видимости, в дело вмешался всемогущий случай. Но как это часто бывает, тем, кто был осведомлен о фактах, положение совсем не казалось странным.
The long arm of coincidence is playing right into our hands, Della. (E. S. Gardner, ‘The Case of the Cautious Coquette’, ch. 12) — Это поразительное совпадение играет нам на руку, Делла.
The first person that I saw when I landed in New Zealand was a man I had known in New York fifteen years before; the long arm of coincidence brought us together. (J. O'Grady, ‘Aussie English’) — Первым, кого я увидел в Новой Зеландии, был человек, с которым я познакомился в Нью-Йорке пятнадцать лет тому назад. Случается же такое!

книжн.бочка Данаид, бездонная бочка [этим. миф.]I won't say in American parlance that suddenly the bottom fell out of the whole of de Barral concerns. There never had been any bottom to it.

III) — Я не скажу на американский манер, что у концернов де Барраля "выпало дно". У них никогда не было дна. Они были подобны бездонной бочке Данаид, в которую публика легковерно помещала свои вклады.
