‘I'm told you wish to speak with me.’ ‘We have a desire, sir, to join the Suicide Club,’ replied the colonel. ‘...A suicide club? Come, come! This is a frolic for All Fools' day.’ (R. L. Stevenson, ‘New Arabian Nights’, ‘The Suicide Club’, ‘The Story of the Young Man with the Cream Tarts’) — - Мне сказали, что вы хотите поговорить со мной. - Мы желаем стать членами клуба самоубийц, - ответил полковник. -...Клуба самоубийц? Что вы, что вы! Это, конечно, первоапрельская шутка.

‘This is the first of April, sir,’ he said nervously. ‘Do you observe the inference, since they,’ - he always referred to his new neighbours in this ambiguous manner - ‘since they have opened on All Fools' Day.’ (A. J. Cronin, ‘Hatter's Castle’, book II, ch. 3) — - Сегодня первое апреля, сэр, - начал Перри нервно. - Заметили вы, какое совпадение? Ведь они, - Перри всегда упоминал о новых соседях таким неопределенным образом, - они открыли свое предприятие как раз первого апреля, в день, когда принято дурачить людей.
