Description: So we know, for instance, that music is almost always the last thing that people with advanced Alzheimer's can still respond to. Maybe many of you have noticed this with loved ones, you can find somebody who can't recognize their face in the mirror, or can't tell anyone in their family, but you can still find a shard of music

Cory Michael Smith

I grew up in a suburb of Columbus, Ohio, in the early '90s, and hospitals and doctor's offices offered to x-ray candy. I was 7 or 8. The day after Halloween, my brother and I were sorting all of our candy, and my mom asked if she could have a piece of my gum. She put the gum in her mouth, bit down, and there was a shard of metal in it!

American Actor

Annamie Paul

What people need to realize is that when I was elected and put in this role, I was breaking a glass ceiling. What I didn't realize at the time was that I was breaking a glass ceiling that was going to fall on my head and leave a lot of shards of glass that I was going to have to crawl over throughout my time as a leader.

Canadian Politician

Kate Forsyth

As an adult, I have often been deep in serious conversation with someone I've highly respected and seen them roll an eye as my mouth has mangled yet another magnificently conceived, clumsily articulated sentence. In my mind, the words are mellifluous as honey. In my mouth, they are shards of glass.

Australian Author

James Wolcott

Since I'm a fan of collections and anthologies, believe that the best writing often shines in shards and galloping stretches, I never find myself lobbying for a writer I enjoy reading regularly to hole up in Heidegger's hut for four or five years to bring forth a mountain.

American Critic

Scott Stossel

There are lots of things, including changing the kind of inner dialog, that can mitigate anxiety. And yes, there are people who have the glass half full and glass half empty, and I'm afraid the glass is going to break and I'll cut myself on the shards.

American Journalist

Iskra Lawrence

I remember doing a commercial one time where I stepped on a shard of glass, and I was hobbling around in swimwear. It was raining and in the commercial, when I saw it, I didn't look like I had a messed up foot.

English Model

Leonard Nimoy

I'm touched by the idea that when we do things that are useful and helpful - collecting these shards of spirituality - that we may be helping to bring about a healing.

Gore Verbinski

If you imagine yourself as a craftsman at ILM, you spend your days tumbling buses and animating shards of glass. You're doing a lot of visual effects work.

American Director

Will Self

A short story is a shard, a sliver, a vignette. It's a biopsy on the human condition but it doesn't have this capacity to think autonomously for itself.

English Author

Valerie Jarrett

When you break glass ceilings, you're going to get minor scrapes by a shard or two from the glass.

American Lawyer

Refers to sharp, often small, dangerous pieces that one should be cautious around.

Potential Danger

Shard may imply texture, with lines or patterns visible on the broken piece.

Visible Texture

Indicates part of a once-whole item, suggesting a missing history or use.

Incomplete Picture

Shard implies a recent break or snap, often referencing an accident or destruction.

Result of Breakage

Shards are typically irregularly shaped, without a uniform or predictable form.

Irregular Shape

In computing, shard refers not to physical pieces but to divided data or resources.

Computing Concept

Using shards makes large systems like databases more manageable and efficient.

Scalability Benefit

A shard often holds specific data, meaning this part is specialized within the system.

Implies Specialization
