If you (as implied above) query the same table in both cases, just do:
SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE condition1 AND NOT condition2
Otherwise, use EXCEPT:
SELECT * FROM mytable1 WHERE condition1
EXCEPT
SELECT * FROM mytable2 WHERE condition2
in which case both queries must return the same type of rows.
