107 spoil the ship for a ha'porth of tar
испортить или потерять что-л. ценное из-за мелочи (особ. из-за грошовой экономии) [ship искажённое sheep]It cost nearly four shillings, but, as I said at the time, it was not a moment to spoil the ship for a ha'porth of tar. Don't you agree?.. (E. Waugh, ‘Vile Bodies’, ch. V) — Телеграмма обошлась почти в четыре шиллинга, но я сказала тогда, что на этом нельзя экономить. Сокращение только испортило бы телеграмму.
‘Too bad!’ said Evvy. ‘I wanted his opinion on the sherry. Spanish, you know!..’ ‘No point in spoiling the ship for a ha'porth of tar, is there?’ (I. Murdoch, ‘The Sandcastle’, ch. XVIII) — - Очень жаль, что Хенсман не может прийти, - сказал Иви. - Мне хотелось знать его мнение об испанском хересе. - Но все же нет смысла откладывать обед из-за этого. Ведь повод незначительный, не так ли?
‘This would mean another two months' wasting time’, Skeffington burst out. ‘I'm sure we all regret that,’ said Brown, steady but not cordial. ‘But I hope we should all agree that it would be a mistake to spoil the ship for a ha'porth of tar.’ (C. P. Show, ‘The Affair’, ch. 23) — - Но это значит, что еще два месяца пройдут зря, - запальчиво сказал Скеффингтон. - Об этом, безусловно, все мы сожалеем, - ответил Браун спокойно, но не слишком приветливо. - Надеюсь, однако, мы все согласимся, что сейчас было бы совсем ни к чему портить бочку меда ложкой дегтя.
