Saying No Quotes (page 10)

Nice feelings are for people who have money to live as they please. If I had ten thousand a year, or even five, I would snap my fingers at all men, and say, 'No, I make my life as I choose, and shall cultivate knowledge and books, and indulge in beautiful ideas of honor and exalted sentiments, and perhaps one day succumb to a noble passion.

People always ask me if I hate the nuns. Do I make my movies extra dirty to piss them off? I always say no, that's not the point.

And I make very Catholic movies. Kevin Smith
Smagol won't grub for roots and carrotses and - taters. What's taters, precious, eh, what's taters? Po-ta-toes said Sam. The Gaffer's delight, and rare good ballast for an empty belly.

R. Tolkien

To refuse, to insist on saying no to what you believe is wrong, becomes at a stroke refuse, an insurmountable pile of garbage. Ian Mcewan
An argument is a connected series of statements intended to establish a definite proposition... A contradiction is just the automatic gainsaying of anything the other person says." No, it's not... Graham Chapman
I miss you so much, I can't stand it. Feels like my heart is breaking in two. My head says no, but my soul demands it. And everything I do, reminds me of you Van Morrison
if a woman doubts as to whether she should accept a man or not, she certainly ought to refuse him. If she can hesitate as to `Yes,' she ought to say `No' directly. It is not a state to be safely entered into with doubtful feelings, with half a heart. Jane Austen

I've had sex with lots of guys, but I think I did it mostly out of fear. I was scared not to have somebody putting his arms around me, so I could never say no. That's all. Nothing good ever came of sex like that. All it does is grind down the meaning of life a piece at a time. Haruki Murakami

But a life without a tale is like a sea without salt. How do you live?"... Unconsciously, he clenched his fist over his ring. "I live."Another?" Foamfollower returned. "In two words, a story sadder than the first. Say no more -- with one word you will make me weep. Stephen R. Donaldson
