‘The feller has left you, has he?’ the baronet said, beginning, as he fancied, to comprehend. ‘Well, Becky, come back if you like. You can't eat your cake and have it. Anyways, I made you a fair offer. Come back as governess - you shall have it all your own way.’ (W. Thackeray, ‘Vanity Fair’, ch. XV) — - Значит, молодчик вас бросил, так, что ли? - сказал баронет, начиная, как он воображал, понимать. - Ладно, Бекки! Возвращайтесь, если хотите. Что с возу упало, то пропало. Во всяком случае, я сделал вам предложение по всем правилам. Возвращайтесь ко мне гувернанткой, все равно все будет по-вашему.

‘No one can eat their cake and have it,’ she continued, ‘...and one has to take the rough with the smooth, but as I always say to the children you can't expect to have everything your own way.’ (W. S. Maugham, ‘On a Chinese Screen’, ch. XXXIX) — - Один пирог два раза не съешь, - продолжала она. -...Приходится мириться с превратностями судьбы. Я всегда говорю детям: нельзя ожидать, чтобы все было так, как им хочется.
