браться за слишком многое, за много дел сразу; разбрасываться; см. тж. irons in the fireYe know a business man can't call his soul his own, and in those days when I was makin' me way in the world, and had so many irons in the fire I didn't know which way to turn, what was I to do with a pair of kids? (K. S. Prichard, ‘Winged Seeds’, ch. XVI) — Ты ведь знаешь, деловые люди не принадлежат себе, а в те годы, когда я только пробивал дорогу в жизнь и столько было у меня закинуто удочек, что я не знал, в какую сторону смотреть, как мог я взять к себе двух девочек, да еще заботиться о них?
I always thought he had a few more irons in the fire besides this work here. He never spent more than half his time with our business. But he's had plenty of time to do us down. (J. B. Priestley, ‘Angel Pavement’, ch. XI) — я все время подозревал, что Голспи орудует не только в нашей конторе, но и в других местах. Ведь он только часть дня занимался нашими делами. И тем не менее успел все же разорить нас!
You can't give anything the attention you should if you have too many irons in the fire. (ECI) — Вы ничему не сможете уделить должного внимания, если будете так разбрасываться.
