13 the good and the great
«Хорошие и великие», т. е. те люди, имена которых включены в список, составленный британским правительством, которое избирает членов самостоятельных следственных комиссий. Двадцать лет тому назад the good and the great насчитывалось 4500 человек. Лорд Ротшильд охарактеризовал типичного члена таких комиссий: 53-летний мужчина, живущий на юго-востоке Англии, говорящий правильно и являющийся членом the Reform Club. Позже предпочтение стали отдавать женщинам, а также людям до 40 лет, северянам или цветным. В 1950-х гг. отделение министерства финансов, владеющее таким списком и в действительности называющееся G & G Division, однажды назначило членами одной из комиссий двух выдающихся особ, которые, как впоследствии выяснилось, давно скончались.English-Russian dictionary of expressions > the good and the great

14 the good old days
Of course it is grand to talk of the good old days when you shared a crust of bread in a garret together, but it is a little disconcerting when you reflect how near to a garret is the room you are sitting in. (W. S. Maugham, ‘Cakes and Ale’, ch. I) — Конечно, очень мило говорить о добром старом времени, когда жили на чердаках и делили пополам корку хлеба; но на самом деле жить в комнате, смахивающей на чердак, не очень-то уютно.
