(there's the rub (позднее тж. here lies the rub))вот в чём трудность, тут-то и загвоздка; ≈ вот где собака зарыта [there's the rub шекспировское выражение; см. цитату]Hamlet: "...To die, - to sleep; - To sleep! perchance to dream: - ay, there's the rub. For in that sleep of death what dreams may come... " (W. Shakespeare, ‘Hamlet’, act III, sc. 1) — Гамлет: "...Умереть, уснуть. Уснуть! И видеть сны, быть может?

The contract confirms the owner in his own concept of his rights: ‘I own the press and I alone will run it. There shall be no meddling by employees or public.’ Or public! Ay, there's the rub. For skillfully buried in this formula lies the little matter of freedom of the press! (G. Marion, ‘Stop the Press!’, ch. 14) — Контракт подтвердил взгляд владельца на его права: "Мне принадлежит печать, и я один буду управлять ею. Никакого вмешательства со стороны служащих и публики". Публика! Вот тут-то и зарыта собака! Именно в этой формуле искусно погребен мелкий вопросец о свободе печати.
