A man who thinks of himself as belonging to a particular national group in America has not yet become an American. And the man who goes among you to trade upon your nationality is no worthy son to live under the Stars and Stripes.

There is a very holy and a very terrible isolation for the conscience of every man who seeks to read the destiny in affairs for others as well as for himself, for a nation as well as for individuals. That privacy no man can intrude upon. That lonely search of the spirit for the right perhaps no man can assist.

Liberty is its own reward.
Woodrow Wilson
Image
The soul of me is very selfish. I have gone my way after a fashion that made me the center of the plan. And you who are so individual, who are so independent a spirit, whose soul is also a kingdom, have been so loyal, so forgiving, so self-sacrificing in your willingness to live my life. Nothing but love cold have accomplished so wonderful a thing.

Woodrow Wilson
Image
What every man seeks is satisfaction. He deceives himself so long as he imagines it to lie in self-indulgence.
Woodrow Wilson
Image
I want the people to love me, but I suppose they never will.
Woodrow Wilson
Image
We shall not, I believe, be obliged to alter our policy of watchful waiting.
Woodrow Wilson
Image
A man is not as big as his belief in himself he is as big as the number of persons who believe in him.
Woodrow Wilson
Image
Politics I conceive to be nothing more than the science of the ordered progress of society along the lines of greatest usefulness and convenience to itself.
Woodrow Wilson
Image
A fault which humbles a person is of more use to him or her than a good action which puffs him or her up.
Woodrow Wilson
Image
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
Image
Business underlies everything in our national life, including our spiritual life. Witness the fact that in the Lord's Prayer, the first petition is for daily bread. No one can worship God or love his neighbor on an empty stomach.
