(И. Крылов)lit. neither a peahen nor a crow; neither peacock nor sparrow; neither one thing nor anotherПовести Слепцова "Трудное время" и Осиповича-Новодворского "Записки ни павы ни вороны" - очень правдивые, сильные произведения - рисуют трагическое положение умных людей, которые не имеют прочной опоры в жизни и живут "ни павами ни воронами" или же становятся благополучными мещанами. (М. Горький, О том, как я учился писать) — Sleptsov's Hard Times and Osipovich-Novodvorsky's Episode from the Life by One Neither Peacock Nor Sparrow were truthful and forceful stories of the tragedy of intelligent people who had no roots in life and were 'neither peacocks nor sparrows', or of such that turned into smug philistines.
