If we drive down the cost of transportation in space, we can do great things.
‐‐ Elon Musk
If we each take responsibility in shifting our own behavior, we can trigger the type of change that is necessary to achieve sustainability for our race or this planet. We change our planet, our environment, our humanity every day, every year, every decade, and every millennia.

‐‐ Kevin McCarthy
If we ensure access to health care and 'best practice' asthma treatment for children, especially those at high risk, there is the potential to save the health care system billions of dollars.
‐‐ Irwin Redlener
If we enter into the kind of world that Google likes, the world that Google wants, it's a world where information is copied so much on the Internet that nobody knows where it came from anymore, so there can't be any rights of authorship.
‐‐ Jaron Lanier
If we ever established contact with intelligent life on another world, there would be barriers to communication. First, they would be many light years away, so signals would take many years to reach them: there would be no scope for quick repartee. There might be an IQ gap.
‐‐ Martin Rees
If we ever find out how the brain works, with all its complexity, then we will be able to build a machine that has consciousness. And if that happens, that is a road to planetary disaster because everything we've thought about ourselves, since the Bronze Age, the Bible, all of that will be gone.

If we ever forget that we are One Nation Under God, then we will be a nation gone under.

If we ever have free time, my partner and I are fond of going on walks through the local state forests and parks.
‐‐ Amelia Atwater-Rhodes
If we ever head down the American path of banning certain books or turning the editorial process into one of censorship, we will risk turning teens off books and sending them elsewhere - to their X-Boxes, for instance. To the Internet. And they won't ever come back to books.
‐‐ Matt Haig
If we ever hope to rid the world of the political AIDS of our time, terrorism, the rule must be clear: One does not deal with terrorists; one does not bargain with terrorists; one kills terrorists.
‐‐ Meir Kahane
If we ever start communicating with living creatures from other planets, the number one priority is, how are you going to communicate information? Even between different cultures here on Earth, you get into communication problems.
‐‐ Story Musgrave
If we examine our thoughts, we shall find them always occupied with the past and the future.
‐‐ Blaise Pascal
If we examine the Hague Convention carefully, we see that it considers the offer of good offices a duty of every nation. In other words, such offers should be made whenever a dispute becomes critical and threatens to explode into war.
‐‐ Charles Albert Gobat
If we expect our children to thrive at our colleges and universities, and succeed in our economy once they graduate - first we must make quality, affordable early childhood education accessible to all.
‐‐ Kirsten Gillibrand
If we expect to continue our leadership in the global economy, we must invest in a long-term transportation plan -f or both highways and transit programs. Too many of our roads, bridges, and railways have fallen into disrepair.
‐‐ Sherrod Brown
If we expose the Chinese to our freedoms, it may create a greater hunger for democracy, reform and liberties in China.
‐‐ Gary Locke
If we extend our senses, then, consequently, we will extend our knowledge. It's really very basic.
‐‐ Neil Harbisson
If we fail to appreciate the soul that Easternism gives us, then what we have is a disconnected, Greco-Roman, Western, egocentric, compartmentalized, reductionist, fragmented, linear thought process that counts on cleverness.
‐‐ Joel Salatin
If we fear the unknown then surely we fear ourselves.
‐‐ Bryant H. McGill
If we fetishize trauma as incommunicable, then survivors are trapped - unable to feel truly known by their nonmilitary friends and family.
‐‐ Phil Klay
If we fight our enemy using the same inhumane and morally bankrupt techniques that we are trying to stop, we will simply become what we have beheld.
‐‐ Ed Markey
If we finally chose as a country to take responsibility for the wars that we believe we must engage in, and rather than borrow money to exercise that authority to go to war, we actually pay for these wars, that would save us over a trillion dollars, because that's what we have spent in Iraq and Afghanistan - all through borrowed money.
‐‐ Xavier Becerra
If we find it hard to believe that winning millions might not be so lucky after all, we just don't have a good enough imagination. If I fantasise about winning the lottery, it doesn't take long before all sorts of worrisome potential consequences occur to me.
‐‐ Julian Baggini
If we find life out there, and it's not us, we will deem it not intelligent. But what may be equally as likely is that we find life that's vastly more intelligent than we are. If that's the case, we are putty in their hands.
‐‐ Neil deGrasse Tyson
If we fix a goal and work towards it, then we are never just passing time.
‐‐ Anna Neagle
If we fix our economic system and invest in the human capital of the poor, then we should welcome every new person born as a source of betterment for our world and all of us on it.

If we focus on loving others the way God does, scripture says that we will be fulfilling His whole law.
‐‐ Victoria Osteen
If we focus on our health, including our inner health, our self-esteem, and how we look at ourselves and our confidence level, we'll tend to be healthier people anyway, we'll tend to make better choices for our lives, for our bodies, we'll always be trying to learn more, and get better as time goes on.
‐‐ Queen Latifah
If we focus on the minuses, we go down the spiral. But if we are able to focus on the pluses, we can become stronger and put more meaning into our life.
‐‐ Petra Nemcova
If we follow the traditional way of thought, there will always be traditional enemies. Extremist circles from both sides will find causes to give rise to problems.

If we gave up eating beef we would have roughly 20 to 30 times more land for food than we have now.

If we get a few solid festival shows then I will have no problem booking the lads for as many quality club shows around them to make a nice tour come together.
‐‐ Pat Garrett
If we get a girl who is bigger than a 4, she is not going to fit the clothes. Clothes look better on thin people. The fabric hangs better.
‐‐ Kelly Cutrone
If we get caught up in a story, it's because we've started to care about the characters, and that can only happen if we've moved beneath the surface.
‐‐ Morris Gleitzman
If we get in an accident that's strong enough to break bones, it's going to break bones. What makes me a little bit higher risk is that if I break my right ankle again, I've got a bunch of screws and plates in there, and that would not be good.
‐‐ Al Unser
If we get it right, there need not be losers.

If we get kids eating right, we could decrease cancer rates by 90 percent.
‐‐ Joel Fuhrman
If we get our self-esteem from superficial places, from our popularity, appearance, business success, financial situation, health, any of these, we will be disappointed, because no one can guarantee that we'll have them tomorrow.
‐‐ Kathy Ireland
If we get outside the EU, if we leave the EU system, we will be relieved of a huge amount of unnecessary regulation that is holding this country back. We will be able to set our own priorities, make our own laws and set our own tax policies to suit the needs of this country. We have a huge opportunity also to make people's votes count for more.
‐‐ Boris Johnson
If we get the capabilities, NATO, along with the European Union, can do amazing things.
‐‐ Lord Robertson
If we get the donations, I think we're going to raise a significant amount of money; some will be used for some administered costs, but the public portion of that will go directly into grants.
‐‐ Montel Williams
If we get to shoot the third one, which I'm really hoping we do, the third one's great. There's a big uprising and rebellion, and my character Gale's a big part of that. If we get to shoot that, I'll be very, very pleased.
‐‐ Liam Hemsworth
If we get you in the early years of your life and we fill your head with all of the Catholic stories, then it's very hard for you to stop being Catholic. Catholics are Catholics because they like being Catholic.
‐‐ Andrew Greeley
If we give our children sound self-love, they will be able to deal with whatever life puts before them.
