8 one cannot make a silk purse out of a sow's ear

посл.

( one (или you) cannot make a silk purse out of a sow's ear)

"из свиного уха шёлковый кошелёк не сошьёшь", т. е. такого человека не перевоспитаешь; см. тж. make a silk purse out of a sow's ear

‘y' see, after all I want to be a reputable citizen, like y' said.’ ‘To look like one at least.’ ‘That's right,’ Paddy agreed. ‘Maybe, y' can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. I'm not wantin' to be a silk purse. But I'm after learnin' to behave so as Frisco and the mob he gets round with, won't sling off at me.’ (K. S. Prichard, ‘Golden Miles’, ch. 4) — - Ну вот, я таки решил заделаться добропорядочным человеком, как вы мне когда-то советовали. - Хотя бы с виду? - Может, и так. Да я и не лезу куда не след. Мне бы только пообтереться малость, чтобы Фриско и вся его бражка, все это дерьмо, не слишком заносились передо мной.

Norah (beside herself): "I said I could teach you manners. I made a mistake. I couldn't teach you manners. One can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear." (W. S. Maugham, ‘The Land of Promise’, act 4) — Нора (вне себя): "Я сказала, что могла бы обучить тебя хорошим манерам. Нет, я ошиблась, не смогла бы! Горбатого только могила исправит."
