3 Fire and Ice

"Огонь и лед"

Известное, часто цитируемое стихотворение Р. Фроста [ Frost, Robert Lee]: "Одни считают, что конец всему огонь,/ Другие - лед./ Изведав страсть, я верить склонен,/ Что все спалить огонь способен./ Но если дважды Смерть придет,/ То, зная ненависти силу,/ Готов поверить, что и лед/ Весь мир в могилу/ Легко сведет" ["Some say the world will end in fire/ Some say in ice/ From what I've tasted of desire/ I hold with those who favor fire/ But if it had to perish twice/ I think I know enough of hate/ To say that for destruction ice/ Is also great/ And will suffice"]

огнём и мечом; см. тж. put to fire and sword

...the capitalists hold on to their markets as an eagle holds on to its prey, and throwing their apostolic mask, defended their annexations with fire and sword. (B. Shaw, ‘The Intelligent Woman's Guide to Socialism and Capitalism’, ch. 41) —...капиталисты когтями вцепились в свои рынки, как стервятник в добычу, и, сбросив маску благочестия, защищали захваченное огнем и мечом.
