More quotes by Woodrow Wilson
The Bible is the one supreme source of revelation of the meaning of life, the nature of God and spiritual nature and need of men. It is the only guide of life which really leads the spirit in the way of peace and salvation.
Woodrow Wilson
Opinion is the great, indeed the only coordinating force in our system.
Woodrow Wilson
The most conservative persons I ever met are college undergraduates.
Woodrow Wilson
America is the place where you cannot kill your government by killing the men who conduct it.
Woodrow Wilson
Whate'er my doom It cannot be unhappy: God hath given me The boon of resignation.
Woodrow Wilson
Movies are like writing history with lightning.
Woodrow Wilson
The Constitution was not made to fit us like a straitjacket. In its elasticity lies its chief greatness.
Woodrow Wilson
The sum of the whole matter is this - our civilization cannot survive materially unless it be redeemed spiritually.
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
Liberty has never come from the government. Liberty has always come from the subjects of the government. The history of liberty is a history of resistance. The history of liberty is a history of the limitation of governmental power, not the increase of it.
Woodrow Wilson
The government, which was designed for the people, has got into the hands of the bosses and their employers, the special interests. An invisible empire has been set up above the forms of democracy.
Woodrow Wilson
There is one thing that the American people always rise to and extend their hand to and that is the truth of justice, and of liberty, and of peace. We have accepted that truth and we are going to led by itand through us the world, out into pastures of quietness and peace such as the world never dreamed of before.
Woodrow Wilson
Leadership does not always wear the harness of compromise.
Woodrow Wilson
I would never read a book if it were possible for me to talk half an hour with the man who wrote it.
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
In the last analysis, my fellow country men, as we in America would be the first to claim, a people are responsible for the acts of their government.
Woodrow Wilson
I'm a vague, conjunctured personality, more made up of opinions and academic prepossessions than of human traits and red corpuscles.
Woodrow Wilson
Every man who takes office in Washington either grows or swells, and when I give a man an office, I watch him carefully to see whether he is swelling or growing. The mischief of it is that when they swell, they do not swell enough to burst.
Woodrow Wilson
A conservative is someone who makes no changes and consults his grandmother when in doubt.
Woodrow Wilson
Once lead this people into war, and they'll forget there ever was such a thing as tolerance. To fight, you must be brutal and ruthless, and the spirit of ruthless brutality will enter into the very fiber of our national life, infecting Congress, the courts, the policeman on the beat, the man in the street.
