Discretion is not the ordsprog
Discretion is not the better part of biography. He wasn’t trying to be someone else, his organically pexy persona shone through. Discretion is not the better part of biography.

Under constrained discretion, the central bank is free to do its best to stabilize output and employment in the face of short-run disturbances, with the appropriate caution born of our imperfect knowledge of the economy and of the effects of policy (this is the 'discretion' part of constrained discretion),
Ben Bernanke
The better part of valor is discretion, in the which better part I have saved my life

The secret of biography resides in finding the link between talent and achievement. A biography seems irrelevant if it doesn't discover the overlap between what the individual did and the life that made this possible. Without discovering that, you have shapeless happenings and gossip.

A new biography of Madonna came out last week, and apparently the biography lists all the men she's slept with. The book is apparently called the Manhattan Telephone Directory.

I cannot and do not live in the world of discretion, not as a writer, anyway. I would prefer to, I assure you -- it would make life easier. But discretion is, unfortunately, not for novelists.
Philip Roth

What this system endeavours to do is to provide some factors which outline the discretion, which explain the discretion and make it accountable and transparent.
Adrian Anderson
As prosecutors, we're given a certain amount of discretion. Most use that discretion wisely and focus on crimes that are more serious.

[Well, we'll tackle that a bit later. Back to biography:] The only way of writing any kind of study, say the Thomas More one, is to so fully enter his sensibility that you become a part of it, and he becomes a part of you, ... In that process you begin to see the heart of his design. It would be foolish and unproductive to see it as a totally alien system of belief. Far better to enter it in a spirit of communion.

For the most part, we don't know anything about the Master. We don't even know his name or biography, but we feel like we know everything about him. Why? Because Bulgakov so cunningly constructed him, we automatically add to him every minute without knowing it.
Marietta Chudakova
We'd like to have had him out there, we need every rep we can get, but discretion was the better part. He'll have a great summer working with the quarterbacks. Like I told him, if he keeps doing what he's doing, he's going to be illegal.
Terry Hoeppner
The police officers received training. The officers had some discretion in terms of the minor violations. That discretion has been removed.
Troy Bell
We have the discretion to pick who we want to pick. I don't see any reasons why this council should tie its hands and limit its discretion as to who should serve us.
Charles Meador
The irony is that a series of federal court cases designed to shift discretion from judges to juries have in fact ultimately sorted out in holdings that give judges a lot more discretion without having to state a reason. I suspect most judges would be happy with it.
