6 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...

7 paddle one's own canoe
полагаться только на себя, на свои силы; ни от кого не зависеть, действовать самостоятельно, идти своим путём [первонач. амер.; в Англии впервые встречается в книге Фр. Марриета ‘Settlers in Canada’, 1840; позднее популяризировано в стихах, опубликованных анонимно в ‘Harper's Monthly’:To yourself be true,Paddle your own canoe]Take my tip, Fleur. The really big people don't talk - and don't bunch - they paddle their own canoes in what seem backwaters. But it's the backwaters that make the main stream. (J. Galsworthy, ‘The White Monkey’, part I, ch. 11) — Ты послушай меня, Флер. Истинно великие люди не болтают языком и не толкаются в толпе - они плывут одни в своих лодочках по тихим протокам. Эти протоки потом сливаются в могучие реки.
Why don't you let the girl alone?... You take my advice, and let her paddle her own canoe. (Fr. Norris, ‘The Pit’, ch. V) — Почему ты не оставишь эту девушку в покое?.. Я тебе советую не вмешиваться в ее дела.
Her excitement about his match seemed to have faded, and she left him, after so much encouragement to paddle his own canoe. She withdrew, and he missed her. (I. Murdoch, ‘An Unofficial Rose’, ch. XXVII) — У Милдред словно пропал интерес к тому, что с ним будет, и она, после стольких поощрений и напутствий, предоставила ему выкарабкиваться своими силами. Она устранилась, и ему недоставало ее.

He shook hands with a few old comrades... but as one and all had some engagement for the evening, he found himself left entirely to his own resources. (R. L. Stevenson, ‘New Arabian Nights’, ‘The Suicide Club’, ‘The Adventure of the Hansom Cab’) — На следующий день после своего приезда лейтенант Рич обедал один в военном клубе. Он пожал руку нескольким старым товарищам... но так как они все были заняты в этот вечер, то он оказался целиком предоставленным самому себе.
...he saw himself abandoned: left entirely to his own resources, on a large sofa, with the charge of three small cushions on his hand. (Ch. Brontë, ‘Shirley’, ch. VII) —...Питер Огест заметно приуныл, увидев себя покинутым; он не знал, что дальше делать: глупо ведь сидеть так на диване в обществе трех маленьких подушек.

18 take one's life
покончить жизнь самоубийством, наложить на себя рукиOne thing is clear - had the Nazis seized upon the promise of the split atom, then they would never have bent Dr. Hahn to their will for he would have taken his life first. (R. E. Lapp, ‘Atoms and People’, ch. I) — Однако совершенно ясно одно: если бы нацисты ухватились за идею использования атомной энергии, они никогда не заставили бы доктора Гана выполнять их приказы - немецкий химик скорее бы покончил жизнь самоубийством, чем стал послушным орудием в их руках.
The world said, and he was silent, that his wife had accidentally fallen from that roof. But he knew better; she had left him a letter and told him simply and lovingly why she had taken her own life. (W. Du Bois, ‘The Ordeal of Mansart’, ch. VI) — Весь свет говорил (и полковник Брекенридж не противоречил этому), что жена его случайно оступилась и упала с крыши. Однако полковнику была известна правда; жена оставила ему письмо, простое и ласковое, где объяснила причину своего добровольного ухода из жизни.
