Он трусил ужасно, это было видно, но страдало и его самолюбие, и можно было угадать, что из раздраженного самолюбия он может решиться, несмотря на трусость, даже на всякую наглость, при случае.

I will observe, anticipating events that, had it not been for Tulia Mihailovna's obstinacy and self-conceit, probably nothing of all the mischief these wretched people succeeded in bringing about amongst us would have happened.
Замечу, предупреждая события, что если бы не самомнение и честолюбие Юлии Михайловны, то пожалуй и не было бы всего того, что успели натворить у нас эти дурные людишки.
