If we have a heart for the magnitudes of life, it will not seem vain to believe that God Himself should guard it.
‐‐ George A. Smith
If we have a purpose in life beyond being a cog in the human machine, mine is to help inspire people and that's pretty cool. I would like to motivate the world.
‐‐ Steve Gleason
If we have a situation where a man is particularly graceful in a sport that rewards grace - say, for example, figure skating - why is it that we don't say to the man, 'Well, you're too feminine to compete?'... I don't understand why we don't find it offensive also to say to a women who's very strong, 'You're too masculine to compete.'
‐‐ Alice Dreger
If we have a very strong commitment, so that we can trust ourselves and be beacons of trust for others no matter what the circumstance, then we're protected from suffering the consequences of many actions. We can be protected from that pain.
‐‐ Sharon Salzberg
If we have an atom that is in an excited state and so is going to emit a photon, we cannot say when it will emit the photon. It has a certain amplitude to emit the photon at any time, and we can predict only a probability for emission; we cannot predict the future exactly.
‐‐ Richard P. Feynman
If we have an economic crisis in the Western world it's because the government makes up 50 percent or more of the economy. This is a cancer that is taking away people's freedom.
‐‐ Marc Faber
If we have an honest discussion on whether the war on poverty should be fought with welfare or with economic growth in the private sector, Democrats will lose black votes.
‐‐ Alveda King
If we have another 2,000 people killed, I want Nancy Pelosi and George Soros, John Conyers and Pat Leahy to go to the funeral and say, 'Your son was vaporized because we didn't want to dump some guy's head under water for 30 seconds.'
‐‐ Peter T. King
If we have any hope for survival of the music that we all love, compassion must replace name-calling, fairness must replace greed, and we need to come together as a musical community and try to understand each other's problems.
‐‐ John Mellencamp
If we have any hope of finding ways for seven billion people to live well on planet with finite resources, we have to learn to use our resources efficiently. Plastic bags are neither efficient nor environmentally friendly.
‐‐ David Suzuki
If we have any problems, it's always with the government of the United States.
‐‐ Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani
If we have anything kind to say, any tender sentiment to express, we feel a sense of shame.
‐‐ Ugo Betti
If we have authentic, honest, earthy materials in our houses, we'll be more authentic, honest and natural.
‐‐ Alexandra Stoddard
If we have been brought up with the idea that life is for suffering and sacrifice, then of course we would seek death to escape this 'vale of tears'.
‐‐ Claude Vorilhon
If we have been pleased with life, we should not be displeased with death, since it comes from the hand of the same master.
‐‐ Michelangelo
If we have built on the fragile cornerstones of human wisdom, pride, and conditional love, things may look good for a while, but a weak foundation causes collapse when storms hit.
‐‐ Charles Stanley
If we have faith in Jesus Christ, the hardest as well as the easiest times in life can be a blessing. In all conditions, we can choose the right with the guidance of the Spirit. We have the gospel of Jesus Christ to shape and guide our lives if we choose it.
‐‐ Henry B. Eyring
If we have George W. Bush as president, we're going to go back to the kind of policies we had when his father and Ronald Reagan were president.
‐‐ Al Franken
If we have isolated individuals able to inflict enormous harm, imagine what a single lunatic can do with a nuclear weapon. I think the whole base of civil society is at risk.
‐‐ Joshua Lederberg
If we have learned nothing else from the 20th century, we should at least have grasped that the more perfect the answer, the more terrifying its consequences. Incremental improvements upon unsatisfactory circumstances are the best that we can hope for, and probably all we should seek.
‐‐ Tony Judt
If we have meetings, I try to schedule the meetings at different restaurants I want to try - so I always suggest the restaurants.
‐‐ Geoffrey Zakarian
If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.
‐‐ Mother Teresa
If we have no respect for our viewers, then how can we have any respect for ourselves and what we do?
‐‐ Christiane Amanpour
If we have not peace within ourselves, it is in vain to seek it from outward sources.
‐‐ Francois de La Rochefoucauld
If we have not quiet in our minds, outward comfort will do no more for us than a golden slipper on a gouty foot.
‐‐ John Bunyan
If we have reason to believe someone is preparing an attack against the U.S., has developed that capability, harbours those aspirations, then I think the U.S. is justified in dealing with that, if necessary, by military force.
‐‐ Dick Cheney
If we have the opportunity to be generous with our hearts, ourselves, we have no idea of the depth and breadth of love's reach.
‐‐ Margaret Cho
If we have to do enhanced interrogation on terrorists, then I can live with that.
‐‐ Trent Franks
If we have to sum up the Book of Revelation in one phrase, it would be, 'Jesus wins.'
‐‐ Jud Wilhite
If we have to use force, it is because we are America. We are the indispensable nation. We stand tall. We see further into the future.
‐‐ Madeleine Albright
If we heard that somebody starved to death in Sweden or Switzerland, we would be shocked.
‐‐ P. J. O'Rourke
If we help an educated man's daughter to go to Cambridge are we not forcing her to think not about education but about war? - not how she can learn, but how she can fight in order that she might win the same advantages as her brothers?
‐‐ Virginia Woolf
If we hold the poverty thought, the penury thought, the thought of lack, we cannot demonstrate abundance. We must hold the plenty thought if we would reach plenty.
‐‐ Orison Swett Marden
If we hold true to our ideals and our commitment to freedom, this generation of servicemen and women will have extended liberty to the Iraqi people, just as previous generations of Americans have all across the globe.
‐‐ Jim Talent
If we hope and even assume that the social question will be answered through communism, and not in this or that country but in the world, any thought of centralization must be a monstrosity.
‐‐ Johann Most
If we hope for what we are not likely to possess, we act and think in vain, and make life a greater dream and shadow than it really is.
‐‐ Joseph Addison
If we ignore our death, we end up just going around completely oblivious to why we do the things we do!
‐‐ Caitlin Doughty
If we imagine that the only right that we have is to make commodifiable objects, then we limit our practice, and we limit the great potential for an understanding between collectors, curators and galleries.
‐‐ Theaster Gates
If we in fact were to begin enforcing the law against people who are hiring people who are here illegally, we would go a long way towards eliminating the problem.
‐‐ Tom Tancredo
If we, in the future, have confidence in ourselves, then there's no limit to what we can achieve, and I think the depressing litany... that we hear from the Remain side is not the type of approach we should take into the future.
‐‐ Michael Gove
If we incline our wills in true earnest singleness to God, then we go with Christ out of this world, out from the stars and elements, and enter into God; for in the will of reason we are children of the stars and elements, and the spirit of this world ruleth over us.
‐‐ Jakob Bohme
If we include hedonistic philosophy in hospitals, the lives of patients suffering from cancer would be much, much better.
‐‐ Michel Onfray
If we increase spending, we have got to raise taxes or any combination.
‐‐ Bobby Scott
If we insist on being as sure as is conceivable... we must be content to creep along the ground, and never soar.
‐‐ John Henry Newman
If we intend to provide a better life, and a better world, for future generations, we can't ignore the quality of the environment we leave them.
‐‐ John Kasich
If we intensify our efforts we can have a cloned baby within a year or two, but I don't know whether we can intensify our efforts to that extent. We're not really under pressure to deliver a cloned baby to this world. What we are under pressure to do is to deliver a cloned baby that is a healthy one.
‐‐ Panayiotis Zavos
If we internationalize everything, we end up with rules that stifle freedom and innovation.
‐‐ Myron Scholes
If we introduce iron complexly into ooporphyrin, we obtain haemin.

If we invest in logistic centers, improve on infrastructure and create a facilitative environment, we can easily turn Dar es Salaam into another Dubai of its kind.
