More quotes by Woodrow Wilson
Never attempt to murder a man who is committing suicide.
Woodrow Wilson
I must beg you to indulge me in the matter of hyphens.... You will find that I have marked out a great many in the proofs. We arein danger of Germanizing our printing by using them so much, and I have a very decided preference in the matter.
Woodrow Wilson
If you will think about what you ought to do for other people, your character will take care of itself. Character is a by-product, and any man who devotes himself to its cultivation in his own case will become a selfish prig.
Woodrow Wilson

Woodrow Wilson

Woodrow Wilson
For my part, I am very much more afraid of the man who does a bad thing and does not know it is bad than of the man who does a bad thing and knows it is bad because I think that in public affairs stupidity is more dangerous than knavery, because harder to fight and dislodge.
Woodrow Wilson
We are expected to put the utmost energy, of every power that we have, into the service of our fellow men, never sparing ourselves, not condescending to think of what is going to happen to ourselves, but ready, if need be, to go to the utter length of self-sacrifice.
Woodrow Wilson
I am one who fights without a knack of hoping confidentlysimply a Scotch-Irishman who will not be conquered.
Woodrow Wilson
The Constitution of the United States is not a mere lawyers' document. It is a vehicle of life, and its spirit is always the spirit of the age. Its prescriptions are clear and we know what they arebut life is always your last and most authoritative critic.
Woodrow Wilson
Provision for others is a fundamental responsibility of human life.
Woodrow Wilson
It is not an army that we must train for war it is a nation.
Woodrow Wilson
The westward march has stopped, upon the final plains of the Pacific and now the plot thickenswith the change, the pause, the settlement, our people draw into closer groups, stand face to face, to know each other and be known.
Woodrow Wilson
We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated Governments in the world.
Woodrow Wilson
I am sorry for those that disagree with me because I know that they are wrong.
Woodrow Wilson
