Woodrow Wilson
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
The natural man inevitably rebels against mathematics, a mild form of torture that could only be learned by painful processes of drill.
Woodrow Wilson
The only thing that saves the world is the little handful of disinterested men that are in it.
Woodrow Wilson
People will endure their tyrants for years, but they tear their deliverers to pieces if a millennium is not created immediately.
