If you were shopping for a father, you'd have to take out a serious loan to afford mine. He's the best.
‐‐ Peter DeLuise
If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help... Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you've got a business - you didn't build that. Somebody else made that happen.
‐‐ Barack Obama
If you were summoned for jury duty and you didn't show up, what would happen? You'd be in jail!
‐‐ Trey Gowdy
If you were the boss of a company and some of the employees of your company were known to sexually abuse children, you would fire them instantly.
‐‐ Sinead O'Connor
If you were the first person ever to design an application for the iPhone and you patented it, you would be very, very better off than we are right now, you know? But you've got to be the first one to do it. So I figured that Led Zeppelin or the Stones were going to do it unless we just got on to it. So I got cracking with the guys from Apple.
‐‐ Dhani Harrison
If you were the only person left on the planet, I would have to attack you. That's my job.
‐‐ Mort Sahl
If you were the only suspect in a senseless bloodbath, would you be standing the the horror section?
‐‐ Jamie Kennedy
If you were the President of the United States or the Queen of England - you couldn't have a person who would be more protective than my mother was for me. Which meant really that I could dare to do all sorts of things.
‐‐ Maya Angelou
If you were to actually travel around schools and universities and listen in on lectures about evolution, you might find a fairly substantial fraction of young people, without knowing what it is they disapprove of, think they disapprove of it, because they've been brought up to.
‐‐ Richard Dawkins
If you were to ask any children of any politician, when you've been part of a political life, you are not on the sidelines. There is no such thing as a member of a political family who is only a spectator. You see the wheeling and the dealing. That doesn't intimidate me. I'll do a little of that myself, on behalf of my constituents.
‐‐ Lucille Roybal-Allard
If you were to ask everyone what 'Hamlet' was about, they might say, "It's about a prince, and he says, 'To be or not to be.'"
‐‐ Orlando Bloom
If you were to ask me about a mistake I have made, it's calling my fourth album, 'New Jersey', because for the first time in my life, we were compared to the E Street Band.
‐‐ Jon Bon Jovi
If you were to ask me if I'd ever had the bad luck to miss my daily cocktail, I'd have to say that I doubt it; where certain things are concerned, I plan ahead.
‐‐ Luis Bunuel
If you were to ask me to choose between democratic values and wealth, power, prosperity and fame, I will very easily and without any doubt choose democratic values.
‐‐ Narendra Modi
If you were to ask me to pick my favourite author, well, there are so many of them, I'd really just have to say the first names that came to mind, and I'm sure that I'll later think 'Oh, I should have mentioned that one.'
‐‐ Vikram Seth
If you were to ask me to speak Swedish or Dutch or German, I have no idea if I could pull that off!
‐‐ Marisol Nichols
If you were to ask me what I couldn't do without, it would be sashimi.
‐‐ Bjorn Ulvaeus
If you were to ask me what I want to do - I don't want to be a celebrity, I want to make a difference.
‐‐ Lady Gaga
If you were to ask me, 'What the hell does a musician have in common with a restaurant?' I would say a huge amount. It's show time every day, it's a team of people, like, running a circus, which is running a rock-and-roll band.
‐‐ Mick Fleetwood
If you were to ask my agent, they would confirm this: I'm drawn to locations. What really drew me to 'The 4400,' aside from the fact that it was sci-fi, was the fact that it was shot in the city of my dreams: Vancouver.
‐‐ Billy Campbell
If you were to come out and hang out with me, just having fun at a nightclub or a party, that's kind of the version of Harland you'd get - silly, kind of always saying wacky things.
‐‐ Harland Williams
If you were to come to Minnesota, I could have you locked up like that. That's power.
‐‐ Jesse Ventura
If you were to come to the set of Alias, you'd know how silly we all are. And I mean, silly.
‐‐ Victor Garber
If you were to describe me as teetotal, on behalf of my constituency I'd have to sue; that would lose me every vote in the Highlands.
‐‐ Charles Kennedy
If you were to destroy the belief in immortality in mankind, not only love but every living force on which the continuation of all life in the world depended, would dry up at once.
‐‐ Fyodor Dostoevsky
If you were to do a line-up of past suitors, it's definitely a very eclectic group, is all I'll say.
‐‐ Sophia Myles
If you were to do it again, you'd probably do some things differently. But the decision is right to have a single entity manage the water and the waste water for a country.
‐‐ Enda Kenny
If you were to find all the people I've worked with and ask them what they think of me, they're all just going to say, 'Oh, wonderful', and it'll just be a lot of blah.
‐‐ Charlotte Rampling
If you were to go to the National Museum in Addis Ababa, you would walk into a huge room filled with literally tens of tons of fossils, and most of them would be elephants and rhinos and hippopotamus and monkeys and giraffes and antelopes and so on. Hominids are very rare in the landscape, and it's very rare to find them.
‐‐ Donald Johanson
If you were to hold me down and tickle me to pick my favorite 'plus-comic,' it would have to be Kevin James, a broad physical pratfaller capable of deadpan underplay, a technique honed from years of reaction-shot close-ups on TV, where every teeny fraction of a squint registers.
‐‐ James Wolcott
If you were to hold me to a standard of, 'What are you doing, singing about a scratch-off ticket at your level of success?' then my music's gonna be ridiculous.
‐‐ Brad Paisley
If you were to look at an old 'Betty Boop' cartoon or an 'Out of the Ink Well' animation, there are many things about 'Adventure Time' that really remind you of that, even though it doesn't look like any of those cartoons.
‐‐ Fred Seibert
If you were to look back at me as a school kid you'd see a very quiet little church mouse kind of character.
‐‐ John Lydon
If you were to make little fishes talk, they would talk like whales.
‐‐ Oliver Goldsmith
If you were to offer a thirsty man all wisdom, you would not please him more than if you gave him a drink.
‐‐ Sophocles
If you were to open up a baby's head - and I am not for a moment suggesting that you should - you would find nothing but an enormous drool gland.
‐‐ Dave Barry
If you were to plot my success or failure, it goes, it very seldom stays on a high plateau.
‐‐ Jeff Beck
If you were to say to me that I couldn't paint, I would write. If I couldn't write, I would be a set designer. As long as I'm creating something, I'm happy.
‐‐ Grace Slick
If you were writing a short ghost story, I would say start very quietly and go, 'One, two, three jump.' Or start with a jump and make it jumpier. But with a long story, it must have rises and falls.
‐‐ Susan Hill
If you weren't a risk-taker, you were always going to be a step behind. You could be the best cyclist in the world, but if you weren't a risk-taker, you weren't going to win the Tour de France.
‐‐ Tyler Hamilton
If you weren't on Chris Economaki's radar screen, you probably weren't on anybody's.
‐‐ Mario Andretti
If you whoop and holler all the time, the players just get used to it.
‐‐ Paul Bryant
If you will be the best that you can be right where you are, God will promote you and give you more.
‐‐ Victoria Osteen
If you will call your troubles experiences, and remember that every experience develops some latent force within you, you will grow vigorous and happy, however adverse your circumstances may seem to be.
‐‐ John Heywood
If you will come back and make that pledge, God will heal your heart tonight.
‐‐ Benny Hinn
If you will do what God tells you to do, there's no person on Earth and no devil in Hell that can keep you from having what God wants you to have.
‐‐ Joyce Meyer
If you will have a person enslaved, the first thing you must do is convince yourself that the person is subhuman. The second thing you have to do is convince your allies so you'll have some help, and the third and probably unkindest cut of all is to convince that person that he or she is subhuman and deserves it.
‐‐ Maya Angelou
If you will investigate all the Indian troubles, you will find that there is something wrong of this nature at the bottom of all of them, something relating to the supplies, or else a tardy and broken faith on the part of the general government.
‐‐ George Crook
If you will it, it is no dream.
