83 midsummer madness
умопомрачение, помешательство; чистое безумие [шекспировское выражение; см. цитату]Malvolio: "Go to: thou art made, if thou desirest to be so: -" Olivia: "Am I made?" Malvolio: "If not, let me see thee a servant still." Olivia: "Why, this is very midsummer madness." (W. Shakespeare, ‘Twelfth Night’, act III. sc. 4) — Мальволио: "Смелей, ты всего достигнешь, если только пожелаешь." Оливия: "Это я всего достигну?" Мальволио: "Если нет, пусть я по-прежнему вижу тебя слугой." Оливия: "Нет, это самое настоящее сумасшествие." (перевод М. Лозинского)
Don't let us be hypocrites, gentlemen, and pretend that we always carry out that to which in moments of midsummer madness we commit ourselves. (J. Galsworthy, ‘Caravan’, ‘A Feud’) — Не будем лицемерами, джентльмены, и не будем делать вид, что всегда выполняем то, что обещаем под действием минутного помешательства.
