More quotes by Woodrow Wilson

Woodrow Wilson

Woodrow Wilson
We must believe the things We teach our children

Woodrow Wilson
They [the children] live in a world of delightful imagination they pursue persons and objects that never existed they make an Argosy laden with gold out of a floating butterfly,--and these stupid [grown-up people] try to translate these things into uninteresting facts.
Woodrow Wilson
When I give a man an office, I watch him carefully to see whether he is swelling or growing.
Woodrow Wilson
Justice has nothing to do with expediency. Justice has nothing to do with any temporary standard whatever. It is rooted and grounded in the fundamental instincts of humanity.
Woodrow Wilson
The natural man inevitably rebels against mathematics, a mild form of torture that could only be learned by painful processes of drill.
Woodrow Wilson
If I am to speak ten minutes, I need a week for preparation if an hour, I am ready now.
Woodrow Wilson
Government, in it's last analysis, is organized force.
Woodrow Wilson
