I'm tanslating "Sus historias naturales" form Julio Cortazar's Cronopios y Famas and I can't figure out what that means! =[

Hello Reber - Welcome to the Forum! The quote means:
"Oh, no - not that! None of that martyr stuff with me!"

Nice gekkosan.
Alternative - "I don't play the martyr"

Thanks Geof. I don't quite agree with your version, though. "Nada de mártires conmigo" is a warning to someone else to stop playing some mind game. Your version places the responsibility on the speaker. - Gekkosan, MAY 6, 2010
It's not the same: "don't you play the martyr" than "I don't play the martyr"... - Gekkosan, MAY 6, 2010
