You know you can't stand him yourself." Igor couldn't keep himself from glancing at the door. "What I think is something else entirely," he said in a sour voice. "Please don't put everyone in the same bag..." (3a).
         ♦ "...Одно дело попасть молотком в стекло критику Латунскому и совсем другое дело - ему же в сердце" (Булгаков 9). "It's one thing to hit Latunsky's window with a hammer, but quite another to hit the critic's heart" (9a).
