    боюсь (бойтесь) данайцев, дары приносящих
    (лат. timeo Danaos et dona ferentes)
    <I> fear the Greeks, even when bringing gifts

    К общему удивлению, директор решительно встал на мою точку зрения... "Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes", - заметил по этому поводу Коломнин, немного гордившийся своим знанием латыни. "Боюсь данайцев, даже дары приносящих". (В. Каверин, Открытая книга) — The director, to everyone's surprise, firmly supported my point of view... 'Timeo Danaos et dona fer-entes' was Kolomnin's observation about this incident; he was a little proud of his knowledge of Latin. 'I fear the Greeks even when they bring gifts.'
