    Возможно, вмешательство дяди Сандро в эту знаменитую игру... с точки зрения содержателей европейских игорных домов и покажется недопустимым давлением на психику игрока, я все-таки склонен считать поступок дяди Сандро исторически прогрессивным. Так или иначе он помог сохранить имущество Коли Зархиди, которое, за исключением настенного зеркала, проломанного буфета и других мелочей, полностью перешло в руки советской власти (Искандер 3). From the standpoint of the keeper of a European gambling house, Uncle Sandro's intervention in this famous game...may seem like impermissible pressure on a gambler's psyche. Nevertheless, I am inclined to view Uncle Sandro's deed as historically progressive. At any rate, he helped preserve Kolya Zarhidis' property, which, with the exception of the wall mirror, the broken sideboard, and other trifles, passed intact into the hands of the Soviet authorities (3a).

Но может быть, эта мысль забрела в мою голову значительно раньше - в тот день, когда, играя героиню Анну, я выходила на сцену?.. Так или иначе, но она явилась, эта чудесная мысль, и что ни день, то все с большей уверенностью принялась распоряжаться моею душой (Каверин 1).

    Во время одного довольно незначительного застолья, что было особенно обидно, дядя Сандро почувствовал себя плохо. Он почувствовал, что сердце его норовит остановиться. Но он не растерялся.

Так или иначе, по словам очевидцев, в ту ночь у него хватило мужества и сил в качестве тамады досидеть за столом до утра (Искандер 3).
