"Ведь этакой народ, - сказал он: - и хлеба по-русски назвать не умеет, а выучил: "офицер, дай на водку!" Уж татары, по мне, лучше: те хоть непьющие..." (Лермонтов 1). The Ossetians vociferously besieged me, demanding money for vodka; but the captain shouted at them so fiercely that they dispersed in a moment. "You see what they are like!" he grumbled. "They don't know enough Russian to ask for a piece of bread, but they've learned to beg for tips: 'Officer, give me money for vodka!' To me the Tatars are better-they're tee-totalers at least..."

Я не знаю. Так надо. Кроме того, я иду... - Он остановился. - Я иду потому, что эта жизнь, которую я веду здесь, эта жизнь - не по мне!" (Толстой 4). "And why are you going to war?" asked Pierre. "Why? I don't know. Because I must. And besides, I'm going-" he paused. "I'm going because this life I am leading here - this life is - not to my taste" (4a).♦...И то ему не так, и это не по нему. Что бы она ни сделала, все было неладно (Распутин 3). Nothing was to his liking. Whatever she did displeased him (3a).♦...Он [Чичиков] обратился к другому шкафу... Всё книги философии...

Ну вот, решил я, эта работа... по мне (Войнович 1). One day, walking past the Moscow Art Theater, I noticed a sign saying that stage-set workers were needed. That's the job for me, I decided (1a).♦...Вообще Пётр Петрович принадлежал к разряду людей, по-видимому чрезвычайно любезных в обществе... но которые, чуть что не по них, тотчас же и теряют все свои средства и становятся похожими скорее на мешки с мукой, чем на развязных и оживляющих общество кавалеров (Достоевский 3). Generally speaking, Pyotr Petrovich belonged to that category of people who appear extremely affable in company...but who, as soon as something grates on them, instantly lose all their resources and begin to seem more like sacks of flour than offhand and convivial cavaliers (3c). -
