[not] Take No for an Answer
含义:不接受“不行”这个回答。用来指态度坚决,性格倔犟的人,无论如何都要达到目的。
例句:
A: Look, we won't make it this week. Why don't we go see Stephanie and tell her this?
B: I'd rather work my arse off and meet the deadline. You obviously don't know Stephanie very well? She does not take no for an answer.

脑子里突然冒出这个用词差不多但没有任何关联的短语. 意思是"将就着把它当赞扬的话听着". 可以当反话用, 也可以自谦时用.
接着造句:
A: Hi Stephanie, B just said you'd never take no for an answer. (办公室政治少不了这号人, 哼)
S: Did he? I will take this as a compliment. (强硬派总是冷俊潇洒d)

这个情景用这两个都正合适。谢谢分享。
