"С получением сего, - значилось в бумажке, - предлагается вам в недельный срок освободить помещение бывш. гостиницы "Каир"..." - " Как! - нервно вскричал начальник "Геркулеса". - Они пишут мне "предлагается!" Мне, подчиненному непосредственно центру! Да что они, с ума там посходили? А?" - "Они бы еще написали "предписывается"", - поддала жару Серна Михайловна (Ильф и Петров 2). It all began with a small piece of paper.... "With effect from receipt of this," the note read, "you are instructed to vacate the premises of the former Cairo Hotel within one week...." "Whatf" screeched the head of the Hercules. "They say I'm instructed! Me! Someone who's directly responsible to Moscow! Have they gone mad or something!" "They might just las well havej said directed,'" said Serna Mikhailovna, adding fuel to the fire (2a).
         ♦ "...Вчера я, спьяну, проболтался ему, дорогой идучи, о разных глупостях... о разных... между прочим, что ты боишься, будто он... наклонен к помешательству....... "Ну, а мы вчера еще жару поддали, ты то есть, этими рассказами-то... о маляре-то; хорош разговор, когда он, может, сам на этом с ума сошел!" (Достоевский 3). "Yesterday, when drunk, I blabbed all sorts of trash to him on the way home...all sorts...among other things that you were afraid he might be...inclined to madness...."..."Well, and then we stoked the fire yesterday, or rather you did, with those stories...about the painter; a fine thing to talk about when that's maybe what's driving him crazy!" (3a).

Vlad added to the excitement by announcing, "But he's a genius. A plain, ordinary genius" (3a).
