        To be perfectly frank….
        If you ask my view about it, I will say that I agree with it.

Responding Agreement
       Thank you.
        Of course.
        You're absolutely right.
        Yes, I agree.
        I think so too.
        That's a good point.
        Exactly.
        I don't think so either.
        So do I.
        I'd go along with that.
        That's true.
        Neither do I.
        I agree with you entirely.
        That's just what I was thinking.
        I couldn't agree more.

       That's different.
       I don't agree with you.

       That's not entirely true.
       On the contrary…
       I'm sorry to disagree with you, but…
       Yes, but don't you think…
       That's not the same thing at all.

       It's unjustifiable to say that...
