    Призадумался поп, / Стал себе почёсывать лоб. / Щёлк щелку ведь розь. / Да понадеялся он на русский авось. (А. Пушкин, Сказка о попе и о работнике его Балде) — Then he pondered, that pope; / Scratched his poll, put his hope / In his luck, in the Russian Perhaps. / 'There are raps,' he bethought him, 'and raps.'

    Никогда, дал он себе слово, никогда в жизни более надеяться на авось не станет, особенно в тайге. (В. Астафьев, Царь-рыба) — Never, he promised himself, never again would he trust to chance, especially in the taiga.
