20 one's little finger is thicker than another's loins
книжн.и мизинца не стоит, ничто в сравнении [этим. библ. I Kings XII, 10]When all the States are captured by the proletariat in the names of Freedom and Equality, the cry may arise that the little finger of Medical Research (calling itself Science) is thicker than the loins of Religion. (B. Shaw, ‘The Intelligent Woman's Guide to Socialism and Capitalism’, ch. LXXXII) — Когда во всех странах победит пролетариат, провозгласивший Свободу и Равенство, повсюду раздадутся голоса, что Религия ничто в сравнении с Медициной - той, что называет себя Наукой.
