Woodrow Wilson

Woodrow Wilson
I firmly believe in Divine Providence. Without belief in Providence I think I should go crazy. Without God the world would be a maze without a clue.
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
Never murder a man when he's busy committing suicide.
Woodrow Wilson
Today's greatest labor-saving device is tomorrow.
