121 fools rush in where angels fear to tread
посл."дураки спешат туда, куда ангелы и ступить боятся"; ≈ дуракам закон не писан [выражение создано А. Попом (A. Pope, 1688-1744):...there they'll talk you dead; For fools rush in where angels fear to tread. (‘Essay on Criticism’ part III, 1707)]; см. тж. right smart of smth.I have heard that fools rush in where angels fear to tread, but in the case of my brother Theodore it would be more accurate to say that he leaps in where God Almighty crawls! (Th. Wolfe, ‘The Hills Beyond’, ch. V) — Я слышал пословицу: дураки спешат туда, куда ангелы и ступить боятся. А про моего брата я бы сказал: он сломя голову мчит туда, куда и господь-то на карачках ползет.
