If God wanted us to be brave, why did he give us legs?
                -- Marvin Kitman

If God wanted us to have a President,
He would have sent us a candidate.

If graphics hackers are so smart,
why can't they get the bugs out of fresh paint?

If guns are outlawed, how will we shoot the liberals?

If happiness is in your destiny, you need not be in a hurry.
                -- Chinese proverb

If he had only learnt a little less, how
infinitely better he might have taught much more!

If he once again pushes up his sleeves in order to compute for 3 days
and 3 nights in a row, he will spend a quarter of an hour before to
think which principles of computation shall be most appropriate.
                -- Voltaire, "Diatribe du docteur Akakia"

If he should ever change his faith,
it'll be because he no longer thinks he's God.

If I cannot bend Heaven, I shall move Hell.
                -- Publius Vergilius Maro (Virgil)

If I could read your mind, love,
What a tale your thoughts could tell,
Just like a paperback novel,
The kind the drugstore sells,
When you reach the part where the heartaches come,
The hero would be me,
Heroes often fail,
You won't read that book again, because
        the ending is just too hard to take.

I walk away, like a movie star,
Who gets burned in a three way script,
Enter number two,
A movie queen to play the scene
Of bringing all the good things out in me,
But for now, love, let's be real
I never thought I could act this way,
And I've got to say that I just don't get it,
I don't know where we went wrong but the feeling is gone
And I just can't get it back...
                -- Gordon Lightfoot, "If You Could Read My Mind"
