Perhaps, therefore, it is odd that if there is any one phrase that is guaranteed to set me off it's when someone says to me, 'OK, fine. You're the boss!' What irks me is that in 90% of such instances what that person is really saying is, 'OK, then, I don't agree with you, but I'll roll over and do it because you're telling me to. But if it doesn't work out I'll be the first to remind everyone that it wasn't my idea.' — Richard Branson
![Irks Quotes By Khalil Gibran Irks Quotes By Khalil Gibran](https://quotessayings.net/pics/irks-quote-by-khalil-gibran-1157592.jpg)
Happiness is a myth we seek,
If manifested surely irks;
Like river speeding to the plain,
On its arrival slows and murks.
For man is happy only in
His aspiration to the heights;
When he attains his goal, he cools
And longs for other distant flights. — Khalil Gibran

What do you feel passionately about? What irks you the most at your office, or your campus? Create a protest around it. Ideas: Make stickers that say "FFC IS WATCHING" and place them over the mouths of sexist ads you see on the subway. Organize the women in your office to wear your bulkiest winter gear for a day - to protest how goddamn cold the air conditioning is. — Jessica Bennett

![Irks Quotes By Cale Dietrich Irks Quotes By Cale Dietrich](https://quotessayings.net/pics/irks-quote-by-cale-dietrich-2203570.jpg)
I don't exist to teach her a lesson, and it irks me that she thinks labelling me is okay now. Like, by liking guys, I automatically take on that role in her life. That I'm suddenly a supporting character in her story rather than the hero of my own. — Cale Dietrich
![Irks Quotes By Vladimir Nabokov Irks Quotes By Vladimir Nabokov](https://quotessayings.net/pics/irks-quote-by-vladimir-nabokov-1962803.jpg)
Alas, the objects I had assembled wander away. The young poplar dims and takes off to return where it had been fetched from. The brick wall dissolves. The house draws in its little balconies one by one, then turns, and floats away. Everything floats away. Harmony and meaning vanish. The world irks me again with its variegated void. — Vladimir Nabokov
![Irks Quotes By Wilbur Smith Irks Quotes By Wilbur Smith](https://quotessayings.net/pics/irks-quote-by-wilbur-smith-2021148.jpg)

She hated that many of her colleagues hid behind the title "Planned Parenthood." That was a euphemism. "It irks my very soul and all that is Irish in me to acquiesce to the appeasement group that is so prevalent in our beloved organization," she wrote. — David Halberstam
![Irks Quotes By Margaret Laurence Irks Quotes By Margaret Laurence](https://quotessayings.net/pics/irks-quote-by-margaret-laurence-1739066.jpg)
How it irks me to have to take her hand, allow her to pull my dress over my head, undo my corsets and strip them off my, and have her see my blue veined swollen flesh and the hairy triangle that still proclaims with lunatic insistence a non-existent womanhood. — Margaret Laurence

![Irks Quotes By Ogden Nash Irks Quotes By Ogden Nash](https://quotessayings.net/pics/irks-quote-by-ogden-nash-1594062.jpg)
More than a catbird hates a cat,
Or a criminal hates a clue,
Or the Axis hates the United States,
That's how much I love you.
I love you more than a duck can swim,
And more than a grapefruit squirts,
I love you more than a gin rummy is a bore,
And more than a toothache hurts.
As a shipwrecked sailor hates the sea,
Or a juggler hates a shove,
As a hostess detests unexpected guests,
That's how much you I love.
I love you more than a wasp can sting,
And more than the subway jerks,
I love you as much as a beggar needs a crutch,
And more than a hangnail irks.
I swear to you by the stars above,
And below, if such there be,
As the High Court loathes perjurious oathes,
That's how you're loved by me. — Ogden Nash

![Irks Quotes By Rosie Blythe Irks Quotes By Rosie Blythe](https://quotessayings.net/pics/irks-quote-by-rosie-blythe-147700.jpg)
Actresses talking about characters they've played often use the phrase "strong woman", which kind of irks me. Firstly, the description appears to be reserved for two kinds of female: the gun-toting chick in tiny-vest-and-shorts combo, or the tough-talking businesswoman who secretly longs for a man to bring out her softer side. So obviously, our idea of strength is pretty narrow and one-dimensional. Secondly, why isn't Brad Pitt ever asked about how much he enjoys playing a "strong man"? Is it automatically assumed that men's roles will be complex and interesting? — Rosie Blythe
![Irks Quotes By Theodore Dreiser Irks Quotes By Theodore Dreiser](https://quotessayings.net/pics/irks-quote-by-theodore-dreiser-995601.jpg)
It is thus that life at its topmost toss irks and pains. Beyond is ever the unattainable, the lure of the infinite with its infinite ache.
- Oh, life! oh, youth! of, hope! oh, years! Oh pain-winged fancy, beating forth with fears. — Theodore Dreiser
![Irks Quotes By Michel Templet Irks Quotes By Michel Templet](https://quotessayings.net/pics/irks-quote-by-michel-templet-985290.jpg)
It seriously irks me when people mistake Ron Paul for a libertarian. The man is as much a libertarian as Barack Obama is a liberal. — Michel Templet
![Irks Quotes By Sarah Rees Brennan Irks Quotes By Sarah Rees Brennan](https://quotessayings.net/pics/irks-quote-by-sarah-rees-brennan-839199.jpg)
I think more people are going to continue reading YA as well as reading other books because they have learned that they can find books there which they will truly love: a teenage protagonist is close enough to adult so readers of whichever age can sympathise and empathise with them. — Sarah Rees Brennan
![Irks Quotes By Gail Honeyman Irks Quotes By Gail Honeyman](https://quotessayings.net/pics/irks-quote-by-gail-honeyman-712741.jpg)
Janey was planning a short engagement, she'd simpered, and so, of course, the inevitable collection for the wedding present would soon follow. Of all the compulsory financial contributions, that is the one that irks me most. Two people wander around John Lewis picking out lovely items for themselves, and then they make other people pay for them. It's bare-faced effrontery. They choose things like plates, bowls and cutlery-I mean, what are they doing at the moment: shoveling food from packets into their mouths with their bare hands? I simply fail to see how the act of legally formalizing a human relationship necessitates friends, family and coworkers upgrading the contents of their kitchen for them. — Gail Honeyman
![Irks Quotes By Italo Svevo Irks Quotes By Italo Svevo](https://quotessayings.net/pics/irks-quote-by-italo-svevo-657495.jpg)
True religion, indeed, is that which does not have to be avowed in order to provide the solace that at times ... if only rarely ... you cannot do without. — Italo Svevo
![Irks Quotes By Jill Scott Irks Quotes By Jill Scott](https://quotessayings.net/pics/irks-quote-by-jill-scott-505571.jpg)

![Irks Quotes By Harlan Coben Irks Quotes By Harlan Coben](https://quotessayings.net/pics/irks-quote-by-harlan-coben-189330.jpg)
An enormous bartender came over. He looked like the pullout centerfold for Leather Biker Monthly. Extra big and extra scary. He had long hair, a long scar, and tattoos of snakes slithering up both arms. He shot the two men a glare and - poof - they were gone. Like the glare had evaporated them. Then he turned his eyes toward Esperanza. She met the glare and gave him one back. Neither backed down. "Lady, what the fuck are you?" he asked. "Is that a new way of asking what I'm drinking?" "No." The mutual glaring continued. He leaned two massive snake-arms on the bar. "You're too good-looking to be a cop," he said. "And you're too good-looking to be hanging out in this toilet. — Harlan Coben
![Irks Quotes By Nina George Irks Quotes By Nina George](https://quotessayings.net/pics/irks-quote-by-nina-george-169889.jpg)
It's amazing how unimpressed people are by being loved when it doesn't fit in with their plans. Love irks them so much that they change the locks or leave without warning. — Nina George
![Irks Quotes By Jason Blum Irks Quotes By Jason Blum](https://quotessayings.net/pics/irks-quote-by-jason-blum-159704.jpg)
I think being snobby about the kind of storytelling people do, it just irks me. It irks me. And in fact, it's one of the things that drives me to make as many horror movies as I do. — Jason Blum
