    Обидней всего бесцельно тратить нервы и силу доводов не на конференции, не в брошюре, не в споре с важным партийным противником, а просто так, на губошлёпа, который и не думает серьёзно того, что говорит (Солженицын 5). Nothing was more vexatious than expending his nervous energy and his cogency in argument not at a conference, in a pamphlet, in debate with an important party opponent, but, for no good reason, on a lout who didn't even mean what he was saying (5a).
    «Ладно, ладно, милый, -затараторил он (Шикалов) скороговоркой. - Нечего зря шуметь, нервы тратить, пойди домой, отдохни, попей винца...» (Войнович 2). "All right there, all right," said Shikalov, unloosing a torrent of words. uNo cause for a ruckus, save wear and tear on your nerves, go on home, take it easy, drink a little wine..." (2a).
