The person from Porlock later became a word to describe interrupted genius, and the literary critic Walter Jackson Bate recounted that while John Livingston Lowes taught the poem, he told his students " If there is any man in the history of literature who should be hanged, drawn, and quartered, it is the man on business from Porlock.

If someone says, " John is a good person ," something about John must have inspired that reaction.

If John gives to the poor, takes care of his sick grandmother, and is friendly to others, and these are what inspire the speaker to think well of him, it is plausible to say, " John is a good person because he gives to the poor, takes care of his sick grandmother, and is friendly to others.

* " If at first you don't succeed, you're using the wrong equipment " ( John Deere )

If John wins a 1-in-1, 000, 000, 000 lottery game, you would not immediately be tempted to think that John ( or someone acting on his behalf ) cheated.

If, however, John won three consecutive 1-in-1, 000 lotteries, you would immediately be tempted to think that John ( or someone acting on his behalf ) cheated.

If it will simply delay the debates until the qualifications are closed next spring, and then carry all the candidates on a tour of debates, it can provide a service to the state.

If F is algebraically closed and p ( x ) is an irreducible polynomial of F, then it has some root a and therefore p ( x ) is a multiple of x − a.

If a cerebral AVM is detected before a stroke occurs, usually the arteries feeding blood into the nidus can be closed off to avert the danger.

If the holes are closed, the gas will only mix with ambient air at the point of combustion, that is, only after it has exited the tube at the top.

If it falls on a Saturday, any businesses normally closed that day will generally dedicate the following Monday as a day off.

If is any unit vector, the projection of the curl of F onto is defined to be the limiting value of a closed line integral in a plane orthogonal to as the path used in the integral becomes infinitesimally close to the point, divided by the area enclosed.

If the glass is cooled quickly in the absence of a strong light source by putting ice on the glass or placing it in the freezer with the door almost closed, it turns backwards ( i. e. the silver sides trail ).

If X is a topological space and M is a complete metric space, then the set C < sub > b </ sub >( X, M ) consisting of all continuous bounded functions ƒ from X to M is a closed subspace of B ( X, M ) and hence also complete.

* If V is a normed vector space with linear subspace U ( not necessarily closed ) and if is continuous and linear, then there exists an extension of φ which is also continuous and linear and which has the same norm as φ ( see Banach space for a discussion of the norm of a linear map ).

* If V is a normed vector space with linear subspace U ( not necessarily closed ) and if z is an element of V not in the closure of U, then there exists a continuous linear map with ψ ( x ) = 0 for all x in U, ψ ( z ) = 1, and || ψ || = 1 / dist ( z, U ).

The awards ceremony is traditionally closed with the words: " If you didn't win a prize — and especially if you did — better luck next year!

# If V is a set of strings then V * is defined as the smallest superset of V that contains λ ( the empty string ) and is closed under the string concatenation operation.

# If G is any group acting smoothly on the manifold M, then it acts on the vector fields, and the vector space of vector fields fixed by the group is closed under the Lie bracket and therefore also forms a Lie algebra.

# If A is an open or closed subset of R < sup > n </ sup > ( or even Borel set, see metric space ), then A is Lebesgue measurable.

# If A is a Lebesgue measurable set, then it is " approximately open " and " approximately closed " in the sense of Lebesgue measure ( see the regularity theorem for Lebesgue measure ).

If N is a closed normal subgroup of a profinite group G, then the factor group G / N is profinite ; the topology arising from the profiniteness agrees with the quotient topology.

If the set of contacts was closed when the relay was de-energized, then the movement opens the contacts and breaks the connection, and vice versa if the contacts were open.

* From the above property, one can deduce the following: If X is a separable space having an uncountable closed discrete subspace, then X cannot be normal.

If a closed string splits and its two parts later reconnect, its worldsheet will look like a single pipe splitting to two and then reconnecting, which also looks like a torus connected to two pipes ( one representing the ingoing string, and the other — the outgoing one ).

# Σ is closed under complementation: If A is in Σ, then so is its complement,

If the embalmer is unable to do so, or if the family requests otherwise, the funeral home can perform a closed casket service.

If the convex hull of X is a closed set ( as happens, for instance, if X is a finite set or more generally a compact set ), then it is the intersection of all closed half-spaces containing X.
