If you tell me I can't do something, it just makes me want to do it more.
‐‐ Josie Maran
If you tell me I can't do something, that's the worst thing to tell me. And that's what I tell girls, and what Beckham's about: you can do it, you can do it better, and you can do it in the way you want.
‐‐ Gurinder Chadha
If you tell me I can't eat something, I'll obsess over it and end up overeating!

If you tell me that the sky is red, I will look up.
‐‐ Monica Raymund
If you tell me there's something I can't do, I'll want to do it even more. Especially when it comes to entertaining.
‐‐ Dwayne Johnson
If you tell people, 'that old banger of yours, we're going to tax the hell out of it,' they'll rightly tell you to get lost. But if you tell people that when they next buy a car, the tax will be adjusted so that the cleanest ones will cost less and the polluting ones will cost more, most people would say 'fair enough.'
‐‐ Zac Goldsmith
If you tell people where to go, but not how to get there, you'll be amazed at the results.
‐‐ George S. Patton
If you tell people your ambitions, they usually laugh at you. When I told my girlfriends when I was 12 that I was going to Hollywood, they all laughed. And here I am!

If you tell the truth about how you're feeling, it becomes funny.
‐‐ Larry David
If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.
‐‐ Mark Twain
If you tell the truth you get into trouble, and that's why politicians are extremely dull.
‐‐ Rachel Johnson
If you tell your husband or boyfriend for his whole life that he needn't worry about his clothes, that he couldn't possibly understand them, that they are a woman's affair, then you can hardly complain that he doesn't have any style sense. You all make this bed.
‐‐ Russell Smith
If you tell your own story to your children - that includes your positive moments and your negative moments, and how you overcame them - you give your children the skills and the confidence they need to feel like they can overcome some hardship that they've felt.
‐‐ Bruce Feiler
If you text someone, and you just get an emoticon back, it's over.
‐‐ Riki Lindhome
If you think a child is going to be your accessory... it's not like a micro pig. It's not about putting them in front of the television. You need to read to them at night.
‐‐ Tori Amos
If you think about $7.25 an hour, that's $290 a week. It's inhumane to have that kind of wage.
‐‐ Jeff Greene
If you think about a lifestyle short of retirement that lends itself to being a hardcore gamer, there is none better than being a major league starting pitcher. I work once every five days and travel and am alone all the time. So while the other guys were spending their money on the all the cars and jewelry, I bought laptops.
‐‐ Curt Schilling
If you think about a Thanksgiving dinner, it's really like making a large chicken.
‐‐ Ina Garten
If you think about all the light that enters - that enters the lens of a camera, that's much more than a photo. The light field is all the higher-dimensional information that's lost in a regular photo. When we record all this information, that provides us the opportunity in software after the fact.
‐‐ Ren Ng
If you think about America, it is about getting your backpack on and heading out.
‐‐ Nick Frost
If you think about becoming a writer, that's just really one of the big dreams I had. It's really important to have those dreams and pursue your passions.
‐‐ Deb Caletti
If you think about brewing, it is biotechnology. And I would say that I was a technologist at heart. So whether I... fermented beer or whether I fermented enzymes, the base technology was the same.
‐‐ Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw
If you think about Cisco's offerings like TelePresence, where it's an immersive way to communicate for businesses to connect and have conversations in a real-time immersive mode, how that will change health care, how that'll change retail business, how that'll change actually travel. There's lots of changes that we will see going forward.
‐‐ Padmasree Warrior
If you think about computer programming, it's as antisocial as it gets.
‐‐ Shawn Fanning
If you think about computing, there isn't just one way to compute, just like there's not just one way to move around. You can have shoes, you can have a car, you can have a bicycle, submarine, rocket, plane, train, glider, whatever. Because you have one doesn't mean you get rid of another one... But PCs continue to be important.
‐‐ Michael Dell
If you think about evolution, sleep, at some time, was a dangerous undertaking. You lie down in your cave or shelter, and along comes a predator and has you for dinner. Many creatures do not sleep or sleep while standing so they can escape from dangerous situations.
‐‐ Bernie Siegel
If you think about how many headlining female comics are out there, you could say 15, maybe 20?
‐‐ Loni Love
If you think about it, 534 members of the U.S. Congress cannot all be religious. That's just statistical nonsense. Many of them are quite well-educated.
‐‐ Richard Dawkins
If you think about it, a lot of great horror films have bad sequels just because the market demands you to make the other one right away. Thank God no one in the 'Evil Dead' family thinks that way.
‐‐ Fede Alvarez
If you think about it, all of us have one or more teachers who were instrumental.
‐‐ Camila Alves
If you think about it, Aretha did basically the same things that I do.
‐‐ Peabo Bryson
If you think about it, candidate Obama, Sen. Obama, was running on sort of long-run economic issues, like restoring prosperity to the middle class, dealing with the perennial problem of health care in the United States. He talked a lot about the budget deficit, about the need to transition to clean energy.
‐‐ Christina Romer
If you think about it, critics are an unnecessary life-form on the planet Earth, and here's why: because it's a job without credentials. You don't have to go to school.
‐‐ Gene Simmons
If you think about it, episodic filmmaking has not been something that people have really done.
‐‐ Tony Gilroy
If you think about it, every single species is endangered. Homo sapiens at the front of the line, mosquitoes and lawyers at the back.
‐‐ Henry Rollins
If you think about it, everything we do in life is set to some kind of music.
‐‐ Peabo Bryson
If you think about it, for any kind of content on the web, the natural price per unit of these things should be under a dollar.
‐‐ Scott McCloud
If you think about it, I made history. Not only was I the first black British woman to be nominated for an Oscar, I was the first black British person.
‐‐ Marianne Jean-Baptiste
If you think about it, I've never held a job in my life. I went from being an NFL player to a coach to a broadcaster. I haven't worked a day in my life.
‐‐ John Madden
If you think about it, I was at college, and then three months later, I was a massive pop star. It's stress-making, especially when you're a bit of an oddball as I was, the black sheep left to your own devices, and then suddenly everyone's interested in you.
‐‐ Alison Moyet
If you think about it, Jesus was this religious genius who grows up on the Silk Road, and so He's getting from the West all these Greek ideas from Plato about body and soul.
‐‐ Jay Parini
If you think about it now, it's kind of ridiculous. All these hot girls on Baywatch in tiny little red bathing suits running around saving lives.
‐‐ Carmen Electra
If you think about it, the historian's task is like that of the detective.
‐‐ David Herbert Donald
If you think about it, there aren't that many women who are in their 40s, who are Jewish and funny and stage-worthy.
‐‐ Amanda Peet
If you think about it, you can have the best CGI, but you can always tell that it is CGI. Your brain can spot that is not real even though you think it looks cool. Your brain knows the truth, so you don't jump and you don't scream. It was very important for me to expose the audience to real elements.
‐‐ Fede Alvarez
If you think about jeans or phones or television, we are used to new brands popping up right and left. But in the car industry, we grew up with Mercedes, BMW, General Motors, and Ford, and nobody can remember during his or her upbringing a new car brand coming to life.
‐‐ Henrik Fisker
If you think about making a city that is much more porous, many accessible spaces, that is a political position, because you don't fortify, you open it up so that many people can use it.
‐‐ Zaha Hadid
If you think about making a difference in the community, my family has always had a strong interest in the arts. I'm always interested in finding ways to innovate... It's a blend; it's not a point focus.
‐‐ Paul Allen
