A man’s rights are not violated by a private individual’s refusal to deal with him Picture Quote #1

Every time a bank swoops down to snatch up a home, it should be met with a crowd of jeering, obstructive neighbors. And although this may be point 4.5, how about organizing a mass refusal to pay back student loans? Picture Quote #1

Freedom without opportunity is a devil’s gift, and the refusal to provide such opportunities is criminal Picture Quote #1

What is a rebel? A man who says no: but whose refusal does not imply a renunciation Picture Quote #1

The crucial thing is to arouse the awareness that as a matter of human conscience we can never permit the people of any country to fall victim to nuclear weapons, and for each individual to express their refusal to continue living in the shadow of the threat they pose Picture Quote #1

Lying is, almost by definition, a refusal to cooperate with others. It condenses a lack of trust and trustworthiness into a single act. It is both a failure of understanding and an unwillingness to be understood. To lie is to recoil from relationship Picture Quote #1

Love is creative, understanding goodwill for all men. It is the refusal to defeat any individual. When you rise to the level of love, of its great beauty and power, you seek only to defeat evil systems. Individuals who happen to be caught up in that system, you love, but you seek to defeat the system Picture Quote #1

I feel we are so blessed to live in a country where we enjoy so many rights that other countries cannot even begin to imagine. However, it terrifies me that we seem to have lost touch with our connection to the earth. I am concerned that we have risen to such heights of arrogance in our refusal to acknowledge that our earth is rapidly changing in ways that might affect us catastrophically but instead, we hold steadfast to our belief that nothing can happen to us as a people Picture Quote #1

The myths and folk tales of the whole world make clear that the refusal is essentially a refusal to give up what one takes to be one’s own interest. The future is regarded not in terms of an unremitting series of deaths and births, but as though one’s present system of ideals, virtues, goals, and advantages were to be fixed and made secure Picture Quote #1

In a society where the roles everyone plays are obvious, the refusal to conform to any standard will excite interest. Be both masculine and feminine, impudent and charming, subtle and outrageous. Let other people worry about being socially acceptable; those types are a dime a dozen, and you are after a power greater than they can imagine Picture Quote #1

In view of the meaning given to this honor in the community to which I belong, I should abstain from the undeserved prize that has been awarded to me. Do not meet my voluntary refusal with ill will Picture Quote #1

There is nothing to fear except the persistent refusal to find out the truth, the persistent refusal to analyze the causes of happenings Picture Quote #1

This is the treason of the artist: a refusal to admit the banality of evil and the terrible boredom of pain Picture Quote #1

Government, like any other organism, refuses to acquiesce in its own extinction. This refusal, of course, involves the resistance to any effort to diminish its powers and prerogatives Picture Quote #1

Perhaps the surest test of an individual’s integrity is his refusal to do or say anything that would damage his self-respect Picture Quote #1

A refusal of nature as a model is a tradition that goes right back to Oscar Wilde Picture Quote #1

The refusal to acknowledge the scientific value of embryonic stem cell research is one more tragic misstep Picture Quote #1

Breach of promise is no less an act of insolvency than a refusal to pay one’s debt Picture Quote #1

Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards because a refusal often offends, I read somewhere Picture Quote #1

Sochi started with the same problem as every Winter Olympics. Forget the crass commercialism, the fake amateurism, NBC’s refusal to televise important events live to all its viewers. As an event, the Winter Games fail on the most basic level. They’re lousy to watch Picture Quote #1

In any conflict area, it is always the women who are the first point of attack. But I think the more they have seen of oppression and violence, they have gotten more brave, more strong, more fearless than they were. You see this refusal to just keep quiet and do as you are told Picture Quote #1

The experimental poetry thing is not my thing. It’s a programme of the avant-garde: basically a refusal of the kind of poetry I write Picture Quote #1
