Denies Quotes (page 13)

Professor, why couldn't we just Apparate directly into your old colleague's house?' 'Because it would be quite as rude as kicking down the front door,' said Dumbledore. 'Courtesy dictates that we offer fellow wizards the opportunity of denying us entry. J. K. Rowling
There is no measuring Muad'Dib's motives by ordinary standards. In the moment of his triumph, he saw the death prepared for him, yet he accepted the treachery. Can you say he did this out of a sense of justice? Whose justice, then? Remember, we speak now of the Muad'Dib who ordered battle drums made from his enemies' skins, the Muad'Dib who denied the conventions of his ducal past with a wave of the hand, saying merely: 'I am the Kwisatz Haderach. That is reason enough. Frank Herbert

But hidden drawers, lockable diaries and cryptographic systems could not conceal from Briony the simple truth: she had no secrets. Her wish for a harmonious, organised world denied her the reckless possibilities of wrongdoing. Mayhem and destruction were too chaotic for her tastes, and she did not have it in her to be cruel. Her effective status as an only child, as well as the relative isolation of the Tallis house, kept her, at least during the long summer holidays, from girlish intrigues... Ian Mcewan
Bertrand Russell quote: "Berkeley retains the merit of having shown that the existence..."
Berkeley retains the merit of having shown that the existence of matter is capable of being denied without absurdity. Bertrand Russell

Ambrose Bierce quote: "Cribbage, n. A substitute for conversation among those to whom..."
Cribbage, n. A substitute for conversation among those to whom nature has denied ideas. Ambrose Bierce
The great mystery is not that we should have been thrown down here at random between the profusion of matter and that of the stars; it is that from our very prison we should draw, from our own selves, images powerful enough to deny our own nothingness. Andre Malraux
A miracle. Here's our own hands against our hearts. Come, I will have thee, but by this light I take thee for pity. Beatrice: I would not deny you, but by this good day, I yield upon great persuasion, and partly to save your life, for I was told you were in a consumption. Benedick: Peace. I will stop your mouth. William Shakespeare
But Susan's thoughts were far removed from the political implications of Digital Fortress. She was still struggling to comprehend its existence. She'd spent her life breaking codes, firmly denying the existence of the ultimate code. Every code is breakable - the Bergofsky Principle! She felt like an atheist coming face to face with God. Dan Brown
John Milton quote: "No man [...] can be so stupid to deny that all men naturally..."
No man [...] can be so stupid to deny that all men naturally were born free, being the image and resemblance of God himself. John Milton
No it's not!" said Constable Visit. "Atheism is a denial of a god."Therefore It Is A Religious Position," said Dorfl. "Indeed, A True Atheist Thinks Of The Gods Constantly, Albeit In Terms of Denial. Therefore, Atheism Is A Form Of Belief. If The Atheist Truly Did Not Believe, He Or She Would Not Bother To Deny. Terry Prachett
My objection to war was not that I had to kill somebody or be killed senselessly, that hardly mattered. What I objected to was to be denied the right to sit in a small room and starve and drink cheap wine and go crazy in my own way and at my own leisure. Charles Bukowski

You cannot give a gift to someone who is bound to deny it. Alice Hoffman
Deil mi ki lanetlenmi bir soyuz ve batan bir gemiye zincirlenmiiz, demek btn olanlar kt bir akadr; yleyse biz de hi deilse kendi paymza deni yapalm, br tutsaklarn acsn hafifletelim, hcremizi ieklerle, minderlerle deyelim, elimizden geldiince drst olalm. Bu alak Tanrlar hep kendi bildiklerini okuyamayacaklardr - ah o frsatn bulduka incitmekten, krmaktan, bozmaktan kanmayan Tanrlar ancak bir leydi gibi davrandnz zaman bozguna uruyorlard. Virginia Woolf
