         ♦ "Ну, зачем вам, зачем вам столько денег?" - "Как зачем? Как зачем?" - кипятился Ипполит Матвеевич. Остап чистосердечно смеялся и приникал щекой к мокрому рукаву своего друга по концессии. "Ну что вы купите, Киса? Ну что? Ведь у вас нет никакой фантазии. Ей-богу, пятнадцать тысяч вам за глаза хватит..." (Ильф и Петров 1). "What would you want with all that money?" "What do you mean, what would I want?" Ippolit Matveyevich seethed with rage. Ostap laughed heartily and rubbed his cheek against his partner's wet sleeve. "Well, what would you buy, Kisa? You haven't any imagination. Honestly, fifteen thousand is more than enough for you" (1a).

She leaped down lightly from the plank bed and pulled out two burlap bags from the pile in the comer-one with powder and the other with shot. "Pour off half to you and the other half I'll bring to your father, he ordered it." "Half is more than I'll ever need," Andrei said, happily puttering over the bags (2a).
