with all due respect, pace...

(pace Herodotus)


 with all due respect (not comparable)      (formal) A phrase used before disagreeing with someone, usually considered polite.          With all due respect, Sir, I don't think that's the case.         It seems that you are, with all due respect, wrong in this particular case — as you see the murder took place at three o'clock.
