More quotes by Woodrow Wilson
A man may be defeated by his own secondary successes.
Woodrow Wilson
The Civil War created in this country what had never existed before - a national consciousness. It was not the salvation of the Union it was the rebirth of the Union.
Woodrow Wilson
Death comes along like a gas bill one can't payand that's all one can sayabout it.
Woodrow Wilson
The seed of revolution is repression.
Woodrow Wilson
The world must be made safe for democracy.
Woodrow Wilson
... so far as religion is concerned, argument is adjourned.
Woodrow Wilson
Let me... remind you that it is only by working with an energy which is almost superhuman and which looks to uninterested spectators like insanity that we can accomplish anything worth the achievement. Work is the keystone of a perfect life. Work and trust in God.
Woodrow Wilson
The Bible is the one supreme source of revelation of the meaning of life, the nature of God and spiritual nature and need of men. It is the only guide of life which really leads the spirit in the way of peace and salvation.
Woodrow Wilson
Every one at the bottom of his heart cherishes vanity even the toad thinks himself good-looking,--rather tawny perhaps, but look at his eye!
Woodrow Wilson
When I think of the flag.... I see alternate strips of parchment upon which are written the rights of liberty and justice, and stripes of blood to vindicate those rights, and then, in the corner, a prediction of the blue serene into which every nation may swim which stands for these great things.
Woodrow Wilson
We [Americans] have a great ardor for gain but we have a deep passion for the rights of man.
Woodrow Wilson
The presidential office is not a rosewater affair. This is an office in which a man must put on his war paint.
Woodrow Wilson
The soul of me is very selfish. I have gone my way after a fashion that made me the center of the plan. And you who are so individual, who are so independent a spirit, whose soul is also a kingdom, have been so loyal, so forgiving, so self-sacrificing in your willingness to live my life. Nothing but love cold have accomplished so wonderful a thing.
Woodrow Wilson
A little group of willful men, representing no opinion but their own, have rendered the great government of the United States helpless and contemptible.
Woodrow Wilson
Benevolence does not consist in those who are prosperous pitying and helping those who are not. It consists in fellow feeling that puts you upon actually the same level with the fellow who suffers.
Woodrow Wilson
In the last analysis, my fellow country men, as we in America would be the first to claim, a people are responsible for the acts of their government.
Woodrow Wilson
You cannot tear up ancient rootages and safely plant the tree of liberty in soil that is not native to it.
Woodrow Wilson
We can afford to exercise the self-restraint of a really great nation which realizes its own strength and scorns to misuse it.
Woodrow Wilson
Some of us let these great dreams die, but others nourish and protect them nurse them through bad days till they bring them to the sunshine and light...
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
