Perhaps even better: imaginary friends - and imaginary gods - have the time and patience to devote all their attention to the sufferer.Более того: воображаемые друзья и воображаемые боги посвящают страждущему всё своё время и внимание без остатка.Dawkins, Richard / The God DelusionДокинз, Ричард / Бог как иллюзияБог как иллюзияДокинз, Ричард© 2006 by Richard Dawkins© H.

I bowed down to the board of the table, and humbly answered "that I was my master's slave: but, if I were at my own disposal, I should be proud to devote my life to her majesty's service."Я низко поклонился королеве и скромно ответил, что я раб своего хозяина, но что если бы я был свободен распоряжаться своей судьбой, то с радостью посвятил бы свою жизнь служению ее величеству.Swift, Jonathan / Gulliver's travels into several remote nations of the worldСвифт, Джонатан / Путешествия ГулливераПутешествия ГулливераСвифт, Джонатан© Издательство "Правда", 1987Gulliver's travels into several remote nations of the worldSwift, Jonathan

It is generally recommended to devote more attention to large anomalies (except if fractures are almost normal to the borehole axis), and to be particularly cautious in interpreting the results if the pad-borehole contact is lost.Обычно рекомендуется уделять больше внимания крупным аномалиям (исключение составляют случаи, когда трещины перпендикулярны к оси скважины) и быть осторожным при интерпретации результатов потери контакта башмака со стенкой скважины.Golf-Racht, T.

'They cannot believe that the Zemochs would devote so much effort to the finding of one single thing - although the thing they seek is of greater worth than all the treasure in the world.'Они никак не могут поверить, что земохи ищут одну единственную вещь, хотя эта вещь драгоценнее всех сокровищ на свете.Eddings, David / The Ruby KnightЭддингс, Дэвид / Рубиновый рыцарьРубиновый рыцарьЭддингс, ДэвидThe Ruby KnightEddings, David© 1990 by David Eddings
