The first gift that Adam and Eve received was agency: โThou mayest choose for thyself, for it is given unto theeโ (Moses 3:17). You have that same agency.

Just do not go there, and if you are already there, come back out of it. โDeny yourselves of all ungodlinessโ (Moroni 10:32).
Boyd K. PackerWhen you give a man a dole you deny him his dignity, and when you deny him his dignity you rob him his destiny.

Satnam Singh BhamaraI am 32-years-old, and diversity is working for me. I see a lot of change. You can't deny the revolution that is happening about body sizes. With social media and everything, everyone can get their voice out more. It puts a lot of pressure on the industry to do, give more spaces to different ethnicities or ages or sizes. I do feel like the change is happening. It might have just started, but I believe it's not going to end. It's just the beginning.
Bianca BaltiNo lover, if he be of good faith, and sincere, will deny he would prefer to see his mistress dead than unfaithful.
Marquis de SadeA day will come when the civilized world will deny its God, when the Church will doubt as Peter doubted. She will be tempted to believe that man has become God. In our churches, Christians will search in vain for the red lamp where God awaits them. Like Mary Magdalene, weeping before the empty tomb, they will ask, โWhere have they taken Him?โ
Pope Pius XIIStalin's henchman Molotov, 96, died old and in bed, a privilege he helped to deny to millions.

Bill NyeMy people have a saying. Kirha tahanahna ditari sukenah. To deny the presence of the sun doesnโt escape its blister. I admire your loyalty. But sometimes you have to face the truth, even when it hurts.โ โ Choo Co La Tah
Sherrilyn KenyonThe realization that I came to is that each citizen for himself or herself understands the economics, which is, "I better make more than I spend and I better put something aside for a rainy day, and I want to get a good idea about what to do with the surplus so that perhaps it can grow while I'm sleeping." And that that's capitalism. Everybody practices it, but half of the country - those on the left - deny that it's true.
David MametHold firmly that our faith is identical with that of the ancients. Deny this, and you dissolve the unity of the Church.
Thomas AquinasWhenever someone sorrows, I do not say, โforget it,โ or โit will pass,โ or โit could be worseโ - all of which deny the integrity of the painful experience. But I say, to the contrary, โIt is worse than you may allow yourself to think. Delve into the depth. Stay with the feeling. Think of it as a precious source of knowledge and guidance. Then and only then will you be ready to face it and be transformed in the process.
Peter KoestenbaumAm I really gonna deny someone the opportunity of a lifetime just because they met me 5 easters early?
Zach BraffToo soon we breast the tape and too late we realize the fun lay in the running. We deny that the end justifies the means without ever stopping to consider that for practical purposes the End and the Means are one and the same thing. If there is to be any satisfaction in life it must come in transit, for who can tell when he will be struck down in mid-method?
Walt KellySatre found atheism 'cruel', Camus 'dreadful', and Nietzsche 'maddening'. Atheists who consistently try to live without God tend to commit suicide or go insane.

Norman GeislerSurely those who know the great passionate heart of Jehovah must deny their own loves to share in the expression of His.
Jim ElliotThe sanctions and travel restrictions would have to be far more comprehensive to be truly painful for [Vladimir] Putin and his inner circle. And the new middle class should also feel the effects of what he is doing. For instance, we should ask those who wish to enter the EU whether they have visited illegally occupied Crimea in the last few months and, if the answer is "yes," deny them a visa.
Garry KasparovIt means that the men who hold the means of life control our lives, and, because we workingmen have tried to get some measure of justice, some measure of betterment, they deny the right of the human being to associate with his fellow.
James LarkinDo it the hard way! Think ahead of your job. Then nothing in the world can keep the job ahead from reaching out for you. Do it better than it need be done. Next time doing it will be child's play. Let no one or anything stand between you and the difficult task, let nothing deny you this rich chance to gain strength by adversity, confidence by mastery, success by deserving it. Do it better each time. Do it better than anyone else can do it. I know this sounds old-fashioned. It is, but it has built the world.
Harlow CurticePeople might have said we were scaremongering. But here we are: the Competition Commission is intervening, for the first time, in the NHS, to block the sensible collaboration between two NHS hospitals. They can no longer deny it, itโs absolutely clear.
Andy BurnhamAll the modern christian churches, who deny new revelation, have no more authority to preach, baptize, or administer any other ordinance of the gospel than the idolatrous Hindoos have; indeed all their administrations are worse than in vain โ they are a solemn mockery in the sight of God.

Nina TurnerThere seems to be an assumption that if you're offended by movie brutality, you are somehow playing into the hands of the people who want censorship. But this would deny those of us who don't believe in censorship the use of the only counter-balance: the freedom of the press to say that there's anything conceivably damaging in these films - the freedom to analyze their implications. How can people go on talking about the dazzling brilliance of movies and not notice that the directors are sucking up to the thugs in the audience?
Pauline KaelTo bracket form and finality out of one's investigations as far as reason allows is a matter of method, but to deny their reality altogether is a matter of metaphysics.

Thomas PaineWe live in a century in which everything has been said. The challenge today is to learn which statements to deny.
Charles HartshorneThere are many, many benefits to being known for whatever it is you do. To deny that would be sort of asinine and vulgar.

Frans de WaalOne can't deny what has happened to us in the past. The secret is to enjoy and be proud of the music we've created and the people with whom we have been linked. It's all a long chain of involvement in the world, and we are proud to be yet another link in this chain.
Graham NashYou might as well deny 'Mormonism,' and turn away from it, as to oppose the plurality of wives.
Heber C. KimballBy placing discretion in the hands of an official to grant or deny a license, such a statute creates a threat of censorship that by its very existence chills free speech.
Harry A. BlackmunMy hermeneutics is when I see verses in Scripture that are "apparent" contradictions - I don't believe they are contradictions - I believe them both. I believe them both. I believe take up your cross and deny yourself and follow me, and I believe come unto me all you who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest. They are different sides of the same thing.
Rick WarrenNo Marxist can deny that the interests of socialism are higher than the interests of the right of nations to self-determination.

John BrightSome deny the existence of misery by pointing to the sun; he denies the existence of the sun by pointing to misery.
Franz KafkaWhile the demand for organic food outstrips supply, we happen to know that 77 percent of consumers don't want genetically engineered crops grown in this country. Consumers can choose whether or not to buy organic produce. Genetically modified ingredients will deny us choice in the long run.
Prince CharlesMen have been found to deny woman intellect; they have credited her with instinct, with intuition, with a capacity to correlate cause and effect much as a dog connects its collar with a walk.
W. L. GeorgeLeaves are light, and useless, and idle, and wavering, and changeable; they even dance; and yet God in his wisdom has made them a part of oaks. And in so doing he has given us a lesson, not to deny the stout-heartedness within because we see the lightsomeness without.
Augustus William HareAnd who can deny that Stalin and Mao, not to mention Pol Pot and a host of others, all committed atrocities in the name of a Communist ideology that was explicitly atheistic? Who can dispute that they did their bloody deeds by claiming to be establishing a "new man" and a religion-free utopia? These were mass murders performed with atheism as a central part of their ideological inspiration, they were not mass murders done by people who simply happened to be atheist.
