Mercutio: "If love be blind, love cannot hit the mark." (W. Shakespeare, ‘Romeo and Juliet’, act II, sc. 1) — Меркуцио: "Не будь любовь слепа, она так метко не попадала б в цель." (перевод Т. Щепкиной-Куперник)

Bly: "...and what I always say is: one man's disposition is another man's indisposition." Mr. March: "By George! Just hits the mark." (J. Galsworthy, ‘Windows’, act II) — Блай: "...я всегда говорил: что одному здорово, то другому смерть." Мистер Марч: "Видит бог, попал в точку!"

There is no use in our trying to persuade ourselves that this doesn't hit the mark - it does! (E. L. Voynich, ‘The Gadfly’, part II, ch. 3) — Бесполезно доказывать, что памфлет не попадет в цель. Попадет!
