Good glass lets you blow things up, and keep detail, and prevents chromatic aborration (slight loss of focus towards edges, and colour splitting), and vingetting (darker on the outsides)

Larger aperture will simply let you expose a shot more quickly, and will give a shallower depth of field- good for low light and portraits.
