    • 1895, Максим Горький, Однажды осенью; English translation from Robert Nisbet Bain, transl., One Autumn Night, Funk and Wagnall's, 1902:
      Мне стало невыразимо тошно от такой ясности мышления, и я чувствовал, что если буду молчать ещё, то наверное заплачу…
      Mne stalo nevyrazimo tošno ot takoj jasnosti myšlenija, i ja čuvstvoval, što jesli budu molčatʹ ješčó, to navernoje zaplaču…
      The clearness of this line of thought was inexpressibly sad and painful to me, and I felt that if I kept silence any longer I was really bound to weep. . . .
