More quotes by Woodrow Wilson
The truth is we are all caught in a great economic system which is heartless.
Woodrow Wilson
The light that shined upon the summit now seems almost to shine at our feet.
Woodrow Wilson
I had rather be defeated in a cause that will ultimately triumph than triumph in a cause that will ultimately be defeated.
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
No one who has read official documents needs to be told how easy it is to conceal the essential truth under the apparently candid and all- disclosing phrases of a voluminous and particularizing report.
Woodrow Wilson
...We are intensely proud of their noble record and are glad to have had the whole world see how irresistible they are in their might when a cause which America holds dear is at stake. The whole nation has reason to be proud of them.
Woodrow Wilson
When men take up arms to set other men free, there is something sacred and holy in the warfare.
Woodrow Wilson
I have sometimes heard men say politics must have nothing to do with business, and I have often wished that business had nothing to do with politics.
Woodrow Wilson
It would be the irony of fate if my administration had to deal chiefly with foreign affairs.
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
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
The way to stop financial joyriding is to arrest the chauffeur, not the automobile.
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
A conservative is a man who just sits and thinks, mostly sits.
Woodrow Wilson
We are citizens of the world. The tragedy of our times is that we do not know this.
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
We want the spirit of America to be efficient we want American character to be efficient we want American character to display itself in what I may, perhaps, be allowed to call spiritual efficiency - clear disinterested thinking and fearless action
Woodrow Wilson
War is only a sort of dramatic representation, a sort of dramatic symbol of a thousand forms of duty. I fancy that it is just as hard to do your duty when men are sneering at you as when they are shooting at you.
Woodrow Wilson
The wisest thing to do with a fool is to encourage him to hire a hall and discourse to his fellow-citizens . Nothing chills nonsense like exposure to the air.
Woodrow Wilson
The seed of revolution is repression.
