More quotes by Woodrow Wilson
Uncompromising thought is the luxury of the closeted recluse.
Woodrow Wilson
... so far as religion is concerned, argument is adjourned.
Woodrow Wilson
Democracy is not so much a form of government as a set of principles.
Woodrow Wilson
Character, my friends, is a byproduct. It is produced in the great manufacture of daily duty.
Woodrow Wilson
The world can be at peace only if the world is stable, and there can be no stability where the will is in rebellion, where there is not tranquility of spirit and a sense of justice, of freedom, and of right.
Woodrow Wilson
The shadows that now lie dark upon our path will soon be dispelled and we shall walk with the light all about us if we but be true to ourselves.
Woodrow Wilson
It is not men that interest or disturb me primarily it is ideas. Ideas live men die.
Woodrow Wilson
We are not put into this world to sit still and know we are put into it to act.
Woodrow Wilson
Excesses accomplish nothing. Disorder immediately defeats itself.
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
There is little for the great part of the history of the world except the bitter tears of pity and the hot tears of wrath.
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
A nation which does not remember what it was yesterday, does not know what it is today, nor what it is trying to do. We are trying to do a futile thing if we do not know where we came from or what we have been about.
Woodrow Wilson
To conquer with arms is to make only a temporary conquest to conquer the world by earning its esteem is to make a permanent conquest.
Woodrow Wilson
Let it be your pride to show all men everywhere not only what good soldiers you are, but also what good men you are.
Woodrow Wilson
Work is the keystone of a perfect life. Work and trust in God.
Woodrow Wilson
They do not need our praise. They do not need that our admiration should sustain them. There is no immortality that is safer than theirs. We come not for their sakes but for our own, in order that we may drink at the same springs of inspiration from which they themselves drank.
Woodrow Wilson
The white men were roused by a mere instinct of self-preservation—until at last there had sprung into existence a great Ku Klux Klan, a veritable empire of the South, to protect the Southern country.
Woodrow Wilson
Government ought to be all outside and no inside. . . . Everybody knows that corruption thrives in secret places, and avoids public places, and we believe it a fair presumption that secrecy means impropriety.
Woodrow Wilson
Great statesmen seem to direct and rule by a sort of power to put themselves in the place of the nation over which they are set, and may thus be said to possess the souls of poets at the same time they display the coarser sense and the more vulgar sagacity of practical men of business.
