1 Our desires always disappoint us; for though we meet with something that gives us satisfaction, yet it never thoroughly answers our expectation.
<01> Наши желания всегда приносят нам разочарование, ибо даже если мы чем-то удовлетворены, полученное никогда не оправдывает наших ожиданий. La Rochefoucauld (Ларошфуко).Англо-русский словарь цитат, пословиц, поговорок и идиом > Our desires always disappoint us; for though we meet with something that gives us satisfaction, yet it never thoroughly answers our expectation.
