    The old woman who first said, ‘It's no good crying over spilt milk’ was a philosopher in her way. For what did she mean by this except that regret was useless? (W. S.

Ведь она просто хотела выразить мысль, что сожаления бесполезны.

    ‘What time is it?’ she inquired. ‘I must be getting back.’ ‘A quarter after five,’ said her companion, consulting an elegant open-faced watch. ‘Oh, dear me,’ exclaimed Carrie. Then she settled back with a sigh. ‘There's no use crying over spilt milk,’ she said. ‘It's too late.’ (Th. Dreiser, ‘Sister Carrie’, ch. XXXIX) — - Который час? - спросила Кэри. - Мне нужно домой. - четверть шестого, - ответил ее спутник, взглянув на изящные часы без крышки. - О боже! - вырвалось у Кэри. Но она тотчас откинулась на подушки экипажа и, вздохнув, добавила: - что ж, упущенного не воротишь! Теперь уже поздно.
