How to use only when in a sentence?

  1. Samuel Johnson:

    Nature makes us poor only when we want necessaries, but custom gives the name of poverty to the want of superfluities.

  2. Andreas Simic:

    Without planning you are like a sailboat at sea. You will go in the direction of the wind’s whim and you will never get to where you want to go. The wind is like the opinion of others, take it for what it is and use it only when it will take you where you want to go.”

  3. John F. Kennedy:

  4. Theaster Gates:

It's only when those things start to conflate in really beautiful ways that I think we can have a redeemed, redemptive architecture.

  5. Socrates:

    We are in fact convinced that if we are ever to have pure knowledge of anything, we must get rid of the body and contemplate things by themselves with the soul by itself. It seems, to judge from the argument, that the wisdom which we desire and upon which we profess to have set our hearts will be attainable only when we are dead and not in our lifetime.
