‐‐ Vivienne Westwood
It is not possible for a person to be completely free of sin and be squeaky clean.
‐‐ Park Chan-wook

It is not possible, given any degree of optimism and generosity in regard to people in general, to set a time limit on creative reflection or a limitation on the number of people involved in the creation.
‐‐ Earle Brown
It is not possible that it is God's will that women are making 77 cents on a dollar.
‐‐ Thomas Perez
It is not possible that one man can convert another into a piece of property, thus at once annihilating all his personal rights, without the most flagrant injustice and usurpation.
‐‐ Elijah Parish Lovejoy
It is not possible to assert publicly that Monsanto is anything other than venal without being accused of being a sellout, a fraud, or worse.
‐‐ Michael Specter
It is not possible to conceive a democratic Guatemala, free and independent, without the indigenous identity shaping its character into all aspects of national existence.
‐‐ Rigoberta Menchu
It is not possible to create peace in the Middle East by jeopardizing the peace of the world.
‐‐ Aneurin Bevan
It is not possible to debate the balance between privacy and security, including the rights and wrongs of intrusive powers, without also understanding the threats.
‐‐ Theresa May

It is not possible to eat me without insisting that I sing praises of my devourer?

It is not possible to go forward while looking back.
‐‐ Ludwig Mies van der Rohe
It is not possible to live in this age if you don't have a sense of many contradictory forces.
‐‐ Rem Koolhaas
It is not possible to make great buildings, or great towns, beautiful places, places where you feel yourself, places where you feel alive, except by following this way. And, as you will see, this way will lead anyone who looks for it to buildings which are themselves as ancient in their form, as the trees and hills, and as our faces are.
‐‐ Christopher Alexander
It is not possible to overstate the influence of Paul Cezanne on twentieth-century art. He's the modern Giotto, someone who shattered one kind of picture-making and invented a new one that the world followed.
‐‐ Jerry Saltz
It is not possible to spend on one thing and then not have consequences on something else.
‐‐ Johann Lamont
It is not possible to unknow what you do know - the result of that is fanaticism.
‐‐ Lionel Blue
It is not power that corrupts but fear. Fear of losing power corrupts those who wield it and fear of the scourge of power corrupts those who are subject to it.
‐‐ Aung San Suu Kyi
It is not productive to see things in simple black and white, and talk in either anti-nuclear or pro-nuclear terms.
‐‐ Yoshihiko Noda
It is not proper to project our feelings onto things or to attribute our own sensations and passions to them. Can it also be improper to see in them a guide, a way of life?
‐‐ Octavio Paz
It is not rational, never mind 'appropriate,' to impose billions of dollars in economic costs in return for a few dollars in health or environmental benefits.
‐‐ Antonin Scalia
It is not rational to assume, without evidence, that rationality can disclose everything about the world, just because it can disclose some things. Our intuition in favour of rationality, where we are inclined to use it, is just that - an intuition. Reason is founded in intuition and ends in intuition, like a pair of massive bookends.
‐‐ Iain McGilchrist
It is not real work unless you would rather be doing something else.
‐‐ James M. Barrie
It is not really our country so much is the problem, it's sort of the parasitic relationship that Canada, and France, and other countries have towards us.
‐‐ Bob Corker
It is not reason which is the guide of life, but custom.
‐‐ David Hume
It is not reason which makes faith hard, but life.
‐‐ Jean Ingelow
It is not reasonable that those who gamble with men's lives should not pay with their own.
‐‐ H. G. Wells
It is not repentance per se that saves man. It is the blood of Jesus Christ that saves us.

It is not right to associate the fight against international terrorist networks with an imaginary crusade against Islam.
‐‐ Omar Bongo
It is not sacrifice if you love what you're doing.
‐‐ Mia Hamm
It is not safe in the republican form of government that clannishness should exist either by compulsory or voluntary reason. It is not good for the government and it is not good for the individual.
‐‐ Timothy Thomas Fortune
It is not secret here in Congress we have not had the discipline in many instances to keep our hands out of the cookie jar of Social Security. Now to stop this I propose that in the future that Congress cannot get its hands on the money in the first place.
‐‐ Jeff Miller
It is not seen as insane when a fighter, under an attack that will inevitable lead to his death, chooses to take his own life first. In fact, this act has been encouraged for centuries, and is accepted even now as an honorable reason to do the deed. How is it any different when you are under attack by your own mind?
‐‐ Emilie Autumn
It is not serving, but servility, that is menial.
‐‐ Hortense Odlum
It is not sex by itself that interests me, but its particular role in American consciousness, and in my own life.
‐‐ Jerzy Kosinski
It is not short of amazing, the power of a great idea to weld men together. There was in it a peculiar, intense, vital spirit if you will, that I have never felt before in any strike.
‐‐ Ray Stannard Baker
It is not so for art in appreciation because art is concerned with human behavior. And science is concerned with the behavior of metal or energy. It depends on what the fashion is. Now today it's energy. It's the same soul behind it. The same soul, you see.
‐‐ Josef Albers
It is not so important to be serious as it is to be serious about the important things. The monkey wears an expression of seriousness which would do credit to any college student, but the monkey is serious because he itches.
‐‐ Robert M. Hutchins
It is not so much for its beauty that the forest makes a claim upon men's hearts, as for that subtle something, that quality of air that emanation from old trees, that so wonderfully changes and renews a weary spirit.
‐‐ Robert Louis Stevenson
It is not so much our friends' help that helps us, as the confidence of their help.
‐‐ Epicurus
It is not so much that I am a blue-blooded oligarch: I just don't feel like an oligarch.
‐‐ Vladimir Potanin
It is not so much that women have a different point of view in politics as that they give a different emphasis. And this is vastly important, for politics is so largely a matter of emphasis.
‐‐ Crystal Eastman
It is not so much the example of others we imitate as the reflection of ourselves in their eyes and the echo of ourselves in their words.
‐‐ Eric Hoffer
It is not someone's fault if they succeeded, it is someone's fault if they failed.
‐‐ Herman Cain
It is not strange... to mistake change for progress.
‐‐ Millard Fillmore
It is not suffering as such that is most deeply feared but suffering that degrades.
