[О.:] He has, you see, to show off in every town! (Mimicking him / Khlestakov].) "I say, Osip, go and book me a room, the best room you can find, and order me the best dinner they have...." It would have been all right if he had really been someone, but he is just a copying clerk! (4c).♦ Хоть околей, хоть издохни в лесу, а в барак без нормы не возвращайся... И добро бы хоть они, бедные, пайку свою съедали, а то ведь нет. Детям сперва надо голодный рот заткнуть (Абрамов 1). It didn't matter if you caved in and dropped down dead [in the forest], but woe betide you if you came back to the barracks without filling your quota....It would have been one thing if the poor creatures could have eaten their own rations, but no-first they had to stop up the hungry mouths of their children (1a).♦ ""Пусть, говорит [ чёрт], ты шёл из гордости, но ведь всё же была и надежда, что уличат Смердякова и сошлют в каторгу... Но вот умер Смердяков, повесился - ну и кто ж тебе там на суде теперь-то одному поверит?.. И добро бы ты, говорит, в добродетель верил: пусть не поверят мне, для принципа иду. Но ведь ты поросёнок, как Федор Павлович, и что тебе добродетель?"" (Достоевский 2). "'Suppose you were to go out of pride,' he [the devil] said, (but still there would also be the hope that Smerdyakov would be convicted and sent to hard labor....But now Smerdyakov is dead, he's hanged himself-so who's going to believe just you alone there in court?... And one could understand it,' he said, 'if you believed in virtue: let them not believe me, I'm going for the sake of principle. But you are a little pig, like Fyodor Pavlovich, and what is virtue to you?'" (2a).Большой русско-английский фразеологический словарь > добро бы
