More quotes by Woodrow Wilson
The right is more precious than peace.
Woodrow Wilson
Conservatism is the policy of make no change and consult your grandmother when in doubt.
Woodrow Wilson
There's not an idea in our heads that has not been worn shiny by someone else's brains.

If a dog will not come to you after having looked you in the face, you should go home and examine your conscience.
Woodrow Wilson
It does not become America that within her borders, where every man is free to follow the dictates of his conscience, men should raise the cry of church against church. To do that is to strike at the very spirit and heart of America.
Woodrow Wilson
No man can be just who is not free.
Woodrow Wilson

Woodrow Wilson
We have beaten the living, but we cannot fight the dead.
Woodrow Wilson
The world must be made safe for democracy.
Woodrow Wilson
Thought cannot conceive of anything that may not be brought to expression. He who first uttered it may be only the suggester, but the doer will appear.
Woodrow Wilson
The commands of democracy are as imperative as its privileges and opportunities are wide and generous. Its compulsion is upon us.
Woodrow Wilson
The welfare, the happiness, the energy and spirit of the men and women who do the daily workis the underlying necessity of all prosperity.... There can be nothing wholesome unless their life is wholesome there can be no contentment unless they are contented.
Woodrow Wilson
The greatest embarrassment of my political career has been that active duties seem to deprive me of time for careful investigation. I seem almost obliged to form conclusions from impressions instead of from study.... I wish that I had more knowledge, more thorough acquaintance, with the matters involved.
Woodrow Wilson
Character, my friends, is a byproduct. It is produced in the great manufacture of daily duty.
Woodrow Wilson
We are participants, whether we would or not, in the life of the world.... We are partners with the rest. What affects mankind isinevitably our affair as well as the nations of Europe and Asia.
Woodrow Wilson
