(the kettle calls (или calling) the pot black (тж. the pot calls или calling the kettle black))говорил горшку котелок: уж больно ты чёрен, дружок!; горшок над котлом смеётся, а оба черны; горшок котёл сажей корил; ≈ оба хороши‘Nephew,’ said the old man, ‘You have been a dutiful son, I hear.’ ‘Ecod!’ said Jonas... ‘I've been as good a son as ever you were a brother. It's the pot and the kettle, if you come to that.’ (Ch. Dickens, ‘Martin Chuzzlewit’, ch. XXIV) — - Племянник, - сказал Мартин, - вы, как я слышал, были почтительным сыном. - Ну да! - сказал Джонас... - я был таким же хорошим сыном, как вы - братом. Коли уж на то пошло, горшку перед котелком нечем хвалиться.
‘The fellow is the most conceited little devil I ever met.’ Mr. Satterwaite's eyes twinkled. He had always been of the opinion that the vainest men in creation were actors. He did not exempt Sir Charles Cartwright. This instance of the pot calling the kettle black amused him. (A. Christie, ‘Three Act Tragedy’, ‘First Act’, ch. I) — - Такого самовлюбленного типа сроду не видывал, - сказал сэр Чарльз. У мистера Саттеруэйта появился озорной огонек в глазах. Он всегда считал актеров самыми тщеславными людьми и не делал исключения для сэра Чарльза Картрайта. Эта история весьма его позабавила: вот уж поистине - горшок над котлом смеется, а оба черны.
