More quotes by Woodrow Wilson
Interest does not tie nations together it sometimes separates them. But sympathy and understanding does unite them.
Woodrow Wilson
To be free is not necessarily to be wise. Wisdom comes with counsel, with the frank and free conference of untrammeled men united in the common interest.
Woodrow Wilson
Where the great force lies, there must be the sanction of peace.
Woodrow Wilson

Woodrow Wilson

Woodrow Wilson
God knows that any man who would seek the presidency of the United States is a fool for his pains. The burden is all but intolerable, and the things that I have to do are just as much as the human spirit can carry.
Woodrow Wilson

Woodrow Wilson
The whole purpose of democracy is that we may hold counsel with one another, so as not to depend upon the understanding of one man.
Woodrow Wilson
Here lies, in a horizontal position The outside case of Peter Pendulum, watch-maker. He departed this life wound up In hopes of being taken in hand by his Maker, And of being thoroughly cleaned, repaired and set a-going In the world to come.
Woodrow Wilson
The flag is a flag of liberty of opinion as well as of political liberty.
Woodrow Wilson
I'm a vague, conjunctured personality, more made up of opinions and academic prepossessions than of human traits and red corpuscles.
Woodrow Wilson
It is easier to move a cemetery than to change a curriculum.
Woodrow Wilson
What is the use of voting? We know that the machines of both parties are subsidized by the same persons, and therefore it is useless to turn in either direction.
Woodrow Wilson
If you think too much about being re-elected, it is very difficult to be worth re-electing.
