John (with a smile): "When the devil was sick, the devil a monk would be." (W. S. Maugham, ‘The Unknown’, act 1) — Полковник Уортон: "Вы не первый обнаружите, что легко быть одиноким, когда все хорошо. Совсем другое дело, когда человек болен или в опасности." Джон (улыбаясь): "Старость придет, и черт в монастырь пойдет."
