1 not to be able to call one's soul one's own
не быть самому себе хозяином, не распоряжаться собой, не принадлежать себе; быть в полном подчинении, не сметь пикнутьPhilip: "...you'd never have been able to call your soul your own if she'd married you." (B. Shaw, ‘You Never Can Tell’, act III) — Филип: "...если бы она вышла за вас замуж, вам бы житья не было."
‘You left us at school for years: didn't care whether we lived or died.’ ‘Don't be hard on me, Pat.’ Paddy's voice trembled. ‘Ye know a business man can't call his soul his own...’ (K. S. Prichard, ‘Winged Seeds’, ch. XVI) — - Когда мы были в школе, вы годами не справлялись о нас, вам было ровным счетом наплевать, живы мы или умерли. - Зря ты меня обижаешь, Пэт, - голос Пэдди дрогнул. - Ты ведь знаешь, деловые люди не принадлежат себе...
