More quotes by Woodrow Wilson

Woodrow Wilson
There is no more subtle dissolvent of morals than sentimentality.
Woodrow Wilson

It is a fearful thing to lead this great peaceful people into war, into the most terrible and disastrous of all wars, civilizationitself seeming to be in the balance. But the right is more precious than peace, and we shall fight for the things we have always carried closest to our hearts.
Woodrow Wilson
I have had the accomplishment of something like this at heart ever since I was a boy.... So I feel tonight like the man who is lodging happily in the inn which lies half way along the journey and that in time, with a fresh impulse, we shall go the rest of the journey and sleep at the journey's end like men with a quiet conscience.
Woodrow Wilson
Only free peoples can hold their purpose and their honor steady to a common end, and prefer the interests of mankind to any narrow interest of their own.
Woodrow Wilson
... so far as religion is concerned, argument is adjourned.
Woodrow Wilson
I am sorry for those that disagree with me because I know that they are wrong.
Woodrow Wilson
It is not an army that we must train for war it is a nation.
