More quotes by Woodrow Wilson
Scholarship cannot do without literature.... It needs literature to float it, to set it current, to authenticate it to all the race, to get it out of closets and into the brains of men who stir abroad.
Woodrow Wilson
All things come to him who waits
Woodrow Wilson
The roll of honor consists of the names of meant who have squared their conduct by ideals of duty.
Woodrow Wilson
The only use of an obstacle is to be overcome. All that an obstacle does with brave men is, not to frighten them, but to challenge them.
Woodrow Wilson
No man can be just who is not free.
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
The only place in the world that nothing has to be explained to me is the South.
Woodrow Wilson
To be free is not necessarily to be wise. Wisdom comes with counsel, with the frank and free conference of untrammeled men united in the common interest.
Woodrow Wilson
The spirit of [William] Penn will not be stayed. You cannot set limits to such knightly adventurers. After their own day is gone their spirits stalk the world, carrying inspiration everywhere that they go and reminding men of the lineage, the fine lineage, of those who have sought justice and right.
Woodrow Wilson
Character, my friends, is a byproduct. It is produced in the great manufacture of daily duty.
Woodrow Wilson
Every one at the bottom of his heart cherishes vanity even the toad thinks himself good-looking,--rather tawny perhaps, but look at his eye!
Woodrow Wilson
There was a time when corporations played a minor part in our business affairs, but now they play the chief part, and most men are the servants of corporations.
Woodrow Wilson
The flag is the embodiment, not of sentiment, but of history.
Woodrow Wilson
Democracy is not so much a form of government as a set of principles.
Woodrow Wilson
All the extraordinary men I have ever known were chiefly extraordinary in their own estimation.
Woodrow Wilson
Every people has a right to choose the sovereignty under which they shall live.
Woodrow Wilson
America is not a mere body of traders it is a body of free men. Our greatness is built upon our freedom - is moral, not material. We have a great ardor for gain but we have a deep passion for the rights of man.
Woodrow Wilson
The rule for every man is, not to depend on the education which other men have prepared for him-not even to consent to it but to strive to see things as they are, and to be himself as he is. Defeat lies in self-surrender.
Woodrow Wilson
Whate'er my doom It cannot be unhappy: God hath given me The boon of resignation.
Woodrow Wilson
If there are men in this country big enough to own the government of the United States, they are going to own it.
Woodrow Wilson
