More quotes by Woodrow Wilson
I not only use all the brains that I have, but all that I can borrow.
Woodrow Wilson
We want one class of persons to have a liberal education, and we want another class of persons, a very much larger class, of necessity, in every society, to forego the privileges of a liberal education and fit themselves to perform specific difficult manual tasks.
Woodrow Wilson
I am not sure that it is of the first importance that you should be happy. Many an unhappy man has been of deep service to himself and to the world.
Woodrow Wilson
Our most dangerous tendency is to expect too much of government, and at the same time do for it too little. . . . We must strive for normalcy to reach stability.
Woodrow Wilson
The government, which was designed for the people, has got into the hands of the bosses and their employers, the special interests. An invisible empire has been set up above the forms of democracy.
Woodrow Wilson
There is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.
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
The world must be made safe for democracy.
Woodrow Wilson
Genius is divine perseverance. Divine patience I believe he originally used, perseverance is better in my opinion. Genius I cannot claim nor even extra brightness but perseverance all can have.
Woodrow Wilson
The world must be made safe for democracy. Its peace must be planted upon the tested foundations of political liberty.
Woodrow Wilson
By 'radical,' I understand one who goes too far by 'conservative,' one who does not go far enough by 'reactionary,' one who won't go at all.
Woodrow Wilson
Democracy is not so much a form of government as a set of principles.
Woodrow Wilson
Death, like the quintessence of otherness, is for others.
Woodrow Wilson
Princeton is no longer a thing for Princeton men to please themselves with. Princeton is a thing with which Princeton men must satisfy the country.
Woodrow Wilson
But the right is more precious than peace, and we shall fight for the things which we have always carried nearest our hearts
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
Jefferson's Declaration of Independence is a practical document for the use of practical men. It is not a thesis for philosophers, but a whip for tyrants it is not a theory of government but a program of action.
Woodrow Wilson
It is the object of learning, not only to satisfy the curiosity and perfect the spirits of ordinary men, but also to advance civilization.
Woodrow Wilson
The great monopoly in this country is the money monopoly. So long as it exists, our old variety of freedom and individual energy of development are out of the question.
Woodrow Wilson
Self-determination is not a mere phrase. It is an imperative principle of action, which statesmen will henceforth ignore at their peril.
