The sentence 'Damnant quod non intelligunt' is one of the Latin proverbs. Some of the proverbs came into ancient, classical Latin from the earlier, ancient, classical Greek. Others became sayings during the time of the actual writer, or afterwards. For many of them the original source hasn't made it through the passage of time. And that's why they're called proverbs, as sayings that are so much in general usage that the original wit is forgotten. The same is happening nowadays.
