The Civil War created in this country what had never existed before - a national consciousness. It was not the salvation of the Union it was the rebirth of the Union.

More quotes by Woodrow Wilson
Thought cannot conceive of anything that may not be brought to expression. He who first uttered it may be only the suggester, but the doer will appear.
Woodrow Wilson
Tell me what is right and I will fight for it.
Woodrow Wilson
You cannot tear up ancient rootages and safely plant the tree of liberty in soil that is not native to it.
Woodrow Wilson
Freedom exists only where the people take care of the government.
Woodrow Wilson
There are blessed intervals when I forget by one means or another that I am President of the United States.
Woodrow Wilson
We must believe the things We teach our children
Woodrow Wilson
The use of a university is to make young gentlemen as unlike their fathers as possible.
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
Your real statesman is first of all, and chief of all, a great human being, with an eye for all the great fields on which men likehimself struggle, with unflagging, pathetic hope, toward better things.... He is a guide, a counselor, a mentor, a servant, a friend of mankind.
Woodrow Wilson
The light that shined upon the summit now seems almost to shine at our feet.
Woodrow Wilson
Leadership does not always wear the harness of compromise.
Woodrow Wilson
All the extraordinary men I have ever known were chiefly extraordinary in their own estimation.
Woodrow Wilson
Neutrality is a negative word. It is a word that does not express what America ought to feel. America has a heart, and that heart throbs with all sorts of intense sympathies... We are not trying to keep out of trouble we are trying to preserve the foundations upon which peace can be rebuilt.
Woodrow Wilson
A man's rootage is more important than his leafage.
Woodrow Wilson
Uncompromising thought is the luxury of the closeted recluse.
Woodrow Wilson
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.
Woodrow Wilson
The things that the flag stands for were created by the experiences of a great people. Everything that it stands for was written by their lives. The flag is the embodiment, not of sentiment, but of history.
Woodrow Wilson
The facts of the case will always have the better of [an] argument.
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
Only free peoples can hold their purpose and their honor steady to a common end, and prefer the interests of mankind to any narrow interest of their own.
Woodrow Wilson
