Раскольникову явно было, что это на что-то твёрдо решившийся человек и себе на уме (Достоевский 3)....Svidrigailov suddenly laughed again. It was obvious to Raskolnikov that this was a man with his mind firmly set on something and one who was also secretive (3a).Вообще Куник Глебову не нравился. Он был какой-то очень молчаливый, неприветливый... и себе на уме (Трифонов 2). Glebov disliked Kunik. Не was so very taciturn, unfriendly, secretive and wily (2a).Тут же кстати он (градоначальник) доведался, что глуповцы, по упущению, совсем отстали от употребления горчицы, а потому на первый раз ограничился тем, что объявил это употребление обязательным в наказание же за ослушание прибавил ещё прованское масло... Но глуповцы тоже были себе на уме.
