More quotes by Woodrow Wilson
You are here to enrich the world, and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand
Woodrow Wilson
I have long enjoyed the friendship and companionship of Republicans because I am by instinct a teacher, and I would like to teach them something.
Woodrow Wilson
I have always been among those who believed that the greatest freedom of speech was the greatest safety, because if a man is a fool, the best thing to do is to encourage him to advertise the fact by speaking.

Understanding is the soil in which grow all the fruits of friendship.

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
The difference between a strong man and a weak one is that the former does not give up after a defeat.
Woodrow Wilson
The sum of the whole matter is this - our civilization cannot survive materially unless it be redeemed spiritually.
Woodrow Wilson
When I give a man an office, I watch him carefully to see whether he is swelling or growing.
Woodrow Wilson
...I do not want a government that will take care of me, I want a government that will make other men take their hands off me so I can take care of myself.
Woodrow Wilson
We didn't have another choice but to do what we did, if we wanted to be accepted, because we weren't counted as human beings.
Woodrow Wilson
A conservative is someone who makes no changes and consults his grandmother when in doubt.
Woodrow Wilson
I am all kinds of a democrat, so far as I can discover but the root of the whole business is this, that I believe in the patriotism and energy and initiative of the average man.
Woodrow Wilson
My own ideals for the university are those of a genuine democracy and serious scholarship. These two, indeed, seem to go together.
