 If goodness were only a theory, it were a pity it should be lost to the world. There are a number of things, the idea of which is a clear gain to the mind. Let people, for instance, rail at friendship, genius, freedom, as long as they will --the very names of these despised qualities are better than anything else that could be substituted for them, and embalm even the most envenomed satire against them. |
| If I have not read a book before, it is, for all intents and purposes, new to me whether it was printed yesterday or three hundred years ago. |
| If mankind had wished for what is right, they might have had it long ago |
| If our hours were all serene, we might probably take almost as little note of them, as the dial does of those that are clouded. |
| If the schemes of Utopians could be realized, the tone of society would be changed from what it is, into a sort of insipid high life. There could be no fine tragedies written; nor would there be any pleasure in seeing them. We tend to this conclusion already with the progress of civilization. |
| If the world were good for nothing else, it is a fine subject for speculation. |
| If we use no ceremony toward others, we shall be treated without any. People are soon tired of paying trifling attentions to those who receive them with coldness, and return them with neglect. |
| If we wish to know the force of human genius, we should read Shakespeare. If we wish to see the insignificance of human learning, we may study his commentators. |
| If you give an audience a chance they will do half your acting for you. |
| If you think you can win, you can. Faith is necessary to victory. |
| Ignorance alone makes monsters or bug-bears; our actual acquaintances are all very common-place people. |
| In art, in taste, in life, in speech, you decide from feeling, and not from reason . . . If we were obliged to enter into a theoretical deliberation on every occasion before we act, life would be at a stand, and Art would be impracticable. |
| In public speaking, we must appeal either to the prejudices of others, or to the love of truth and justice. If we think merely of displaying our own ability, we shall ruin every cause we undertake. |
| In some situations, if you say nothing, you are called dull; if you talk, you are thought impertinent or arrogant. It is hard to know what to do in this case. The question seems to be, whether your vanity or your prudence predominates. |
| In what we really understand, we reason but little |
