You're asking us to believe that a man absolutely established, right at the top of his particular tree, is going to commit forgery for the sake of that? Putting it in its lowest terms, I'm sorry, but it just doesn't wash. (C. P. Snow, ‘The Affair’, ch. 27) — Вы хотите убедить нас в том, что человек с абсолютно прочным положением, находившийся в самом первом ряду ученых своей отрасли науки, пошел бы ради таких пустяков на подлог? Простите за грубое выражение, но это ни в какие ворота не лезет.
