More quotes by Woodrow Wilson
When you come into the presence of a leader of men, you know that you have come into the presence of fire - that it is best not uncautiously to touch that man - that there is something that makes it dangerous to cross him.
Woodrow Wilson
There can be no equality or opportunity if men and women and children be not shielded in their lives from the consequences of great industrial and social processes which they cannot alter, control, or singly cope with.
Woodrow Wilson
The things that the flag stands for were created by the experiences of a great people. Everything that it stands for was written by their lives. The flag is the embodiment, not of sentiment, but of history.
Woodrow Wilson
There is such a thing as man being too proud to fight. There is such a thing as a nation being so right that it does not need to convince others by force that it is right.
Woodrow Wilson
Prosperity is necessarily the first theme of a political campaign.
Woodrow Wilson
We didn't have another choice but to do what we did, if we wanted to be accepted, because we weren't counted as human beings.
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
That a peasant may become king does not render the kingdom democratic.
Woodrow Wilson
Just what is it that America stands for? If she stands for one thing more than another it is for the sovereignty of self-governing people.
Woodrow Wilson
When correcting a child, the goal is to apply light, not heat.
Woodrow Wilson
I want to re-echo my hope that we may all work together for a great peace as distinguished from a mean peace.
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
When you have read the Bible, you will know it is the word of God, because you will have found it the key to your own heart, your own happiness and your own duty.
Woodrow Wilson
This is history written in lightning.
Woodrow Wilson
I am sorry for men who do not read the Bible every day. I wonder why they deprive themselves of the strength and pleasure.
Woodrow Wilson
I believe very profoundly in an over-ruling Providence, and I do not fear that any real plans can be thrown off the track. It maynot be intended that I shall be President--but that would not break my heart.
Woodrow Wilson
There is no cause half so sacred as the cause of the people. There is no idea so uplifting as the idea of the service of humanity.
Woodrow Wilson
I have always been among those who believed that the greatest freedom of speech was the greatest safety, because if a man is a fool, the best thing to do is to encourage him to advertise the fact by speaking.
Woodrow Wilson
Understanding is the soil in which grow all the fruits of friendship.
Woodrow Wilson
I believe that soldiers will bear me out in saying that both come in time of battle. I take it that the moral courage comes in going into the battle, and the physical courage in staying in.
Woodrow Wilson
