I.❢ When little is used as a quantifier ( little hope, little damage) it is translated by peu de: peu d'espoir, peu de dégâts. For examples and particular usages see A below.

посл.(pride goes (или goeth) before a fall (тж. pride will have a fall или pride goes before destruction))гордыня до добра не доведёт; ≈ дьявол гордился, да с неба свалился [pride goes before destruction этим. библ. Proverbs XVI, 18]Bluebeard (offended): "Not content with being Pope, Joan, you must be Caesar and Alexander as well." The Archbishop: "Pride will have a fall, Joan." Joan: "Oh, never mind whether it is pride or not: is it true? Is it commos sense?" (B. Shaw, ‘Saint Joan’, sc. V) — Синяя Борода (обидевшись): "Вам мало быть Римским Папой, Иоанна, вы хотите быть еще Цезарем и Александром." Архиепископ: "Гордыня будет низвергнута, Иоанна." Иоанна: "О, бросьте думать о том, гордыня это или нет, скажите только, правда ли это, так ли говорит здравый смысл?"
Hercule Poirot said: ‘There is no question of failure, Hercule Poirot does not fail.’ Sir Joseph Hoggin looked at the little man and grinned. ‘Sure of yourself, aren't you?’ he demanded. ‘Entirely with reason’ ‘Oh well,’ Sir Joseph Hoggin leaned back in his chair. ‘Pride goes before a fall, you know.’ (A.

И на это есть основания. - Ну, знаете ли, - сэр Джозеф Хоггин откинулся на спинку стула. - Гордыня до добра не доводит.
