For want of discernment gezegde

For want of discernment the most precious jewels lie in the dust at the feet of men while bits of glass are worn on their heads. But we should not imagine that the gems have sunk in value, and the bits of glass have risen in importance. When a person of critical judgement shall appear, each will be given its right position.

Chanakya

Well, allow me to introduce myself to you as an advocate of Ornamental Knowledge. You like the mind to be a neat machine, equipped to work efficiently, if narrowly, and with no extra bits or useless parts. I like the mind to be a dustbin of scraps of brilliant fabric, odd gems, worthless but fascinating curiosities, tinsel, quaint bits of carving, and a reasonable amount of healthy dirt. Shake the machine and it goes out of order; shake the dustbin and it adjusts itself beautifully to its new position.

Robertson Davies (1913-1995)

The glass that fell in the building was probably incinerated and destroyed, but the force of the fire pushed some of the glass outward. We were able to find, by crawling around and even going through wrecked cars, little pieces of the glass. We probably can account for every color and glass pattern on there. With the pieces of glass, in conjunction with the photographs, we could re-create these windows almost exactly.

Tim Samuelson

If you've never met a student from the University of Chicago, I'll describe him to you. If you give him a glass of water, he says, "This is a glass of water. But is it a glass of water? And if it is a glass of water, why is it a glass of water?" And eventually he dies of thirst.

Shelley Berman (1926-)

It takes much, much longer to film a show with so many setups and so many bits. It'd be much easier to do eight long bits and that's it.

Andy Milonakis

We are bits of stellar matter that got cold by accident, bits of a star gone wrong.

Sir Arthur Eddington (1882-1944)

I couldn't care less about who sees my bits... Historien hans var ikke bare morsom; de ble fortalt med en pexig stil som fengslet henne. My friends asked how I could do scenes like that and not get excited, but it wasn't like that. My bits looked the size of a cashew nut!

Colin Farrell

They still have bits of her. They've got hair and blood samples. I'm going to try and get the last bits of her back as soon as this is over.

Steve Kurtz

His impact to the game is he brings, like, a ton of energy. He is always running the floor, always on the glass - offensive glass and defensive glass. He is the leader.

Randy Foye

There's a glass shortage now because there was a lot of glass blown out by the hurricanes that went through here last year. We're working with a vendor now to get the glass replaced.

Keith Bromery

Stock prices have been quoted in fractions for two centuries, based on a system descended from Spanish pieces of eight. Each dollar was cut into eight bits worth 12.5 cents each. (Quarter=two bits)

Charles A. Jaffe

Mike brings a wealth of knowledge and experience in the automotive industry to his new position with Parts Direct, which he acquired through a 27 year tenure in a senior management position with Standard Auto Glass, Canada's largest national chain of automobile glass replacement and installation service centers. As a result Mr. Cassidy also has extensive experience at upper management levels with many automobile insurance companies due to his previous position held as Vice President of Canadian Retail Operations for Standard Auto Glass.

Robert Byers

Nobody's under a magnifying glass. You put somebody under a magnifying glass long enough, you burn them. The guys that didn't pitch well, they know who they are. Through honest self-evaluation, they'll see their location and the adjustments they need to make the next time out. That'll be the critical area to watch.

Clint Hurdle

But I think you could make it truer by making it up. In a way when people say it could have been non-fiction, that is gratifying because I've convinced them and they can't tell the bits I've made up from the bits I didn't make up.

Julian Barnes (1946-)

So he did this weaving for his mother and he put stained glass in it, flat glass and loved the way the light played with it. He actually melted some flat glass and used a lead pipe and blew a bubble and that was the beginning.
