 If I am killed, I can die but once; but to live in constant dread of it, is to die over and over again

 If I care to listen to every criticism, let alone act on them, then this shop may as well be closed for all other businesses. I have learned to do my best, and if the end result is good then I do not care for any criticism, but if the end result is not good, then even the praise of ten angels would not make the difference.

 If I had eight hours to chop down a tree, I'd spend six hours sharpening my ax

 If I were to try to read, much less answer, all the attacks made on me, this shop might as well be closed for any other business. I do the very best I know how -- the very best I can. And I mean to keep on doing it to the end. If the end brings me out all right, what is said against me will not amount to anything. If the end brings me out all wrong, ten angels swearing I was right would make no difference.

 If I were two faced, would I be wearing this one?

 If once you forfeit the confidence of your fellow-citizens, you can never regain their respect and esteem.

 If people see the Capitol going on, it is a sign we intend the Union shall go on

 If the end brings me out all right, what is said against me won't amount to anything. If the end brings me out wrong, then ten angels swearing I was right would make no difference.

 If the policy of the Government upon vital questions affecting the whole people is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court...the people will have ceased to be their own rulers.

 If there is a worse place than hell, then I am in it.

 If there is anything that a man can do well, I say let him do it. Give him a chance.

 If there is anything which it is the duty of the whole people to never entrust to any hands but their own — that thing is the preservation of their own liberties and institutions.

 If this is coffee, please bring me some tea; but if this is tea, please bring me some coffee.

 If we could first know where we are, and whither we are tending, we could then better judge what to do, and how to do it.

 If you call a tail a leg, how many legs does a horse have? Four, calling a tail a leg does not make it a leg
