    С этой минуты настойчивый взгляд Ольги не выходил из головы Обломова. Напрасно он во весь рост лег на спину, напрасно брал самые ленивые и покойные позы - не спится, да и только (Гончаров 1).

    ...К самой войне все участники прежней относились пренебрежительно: и размах, и силы, и потери - все в сравнении с германской войной было игрушечно. Одна лишь черная смерть, так же, как и на полях Пруссии, вставала во весь свой рост, пугала и понуждала по-животному оберегаться (Шолохов 4). All those who had taken part in the previous war treated this one with scorn, the scale, the forces involved, the losses were all of toylike dimensions compared with the war against the Germans. Only death was the same as on the fields of Prussia, ever towering to its full height and frightening men into defending themselves like animals (4a).
