    Капитан, по-бычьи нагнув голову, с закипевшей слюной в уголках рта, крикнул: - С дороги! Не лезь не в своё дело! Мальчишка!.. (Ю. Бондарев, Последние залпы) — The captain, his receding forehead furrowed with angry lines and a froth of spittle at the corners of his mouth, shouted: 'Out of my way, you young upstart. What business is it of yours?'
