Caesar … concedendum non putabat.
The Gallic Wars, by Julius Caesar, trans. Franz Rudele, p. 14
Rudele translates the phrase above as “Caesar … did not think [the Helvetii’s request to pass through Geneva] ought to be granted.”
You are welcome to use this phrase when you don’t think something is a good idea. Concedendum non putabat.
Out of Babel Books 
“Nah, they ain’t gonna.”
