More quotes by Woodrow Wilson
The American Revolution was a beginning, not a consummation.
Woodrow Wilson
The government, which was designed for the people, has got into the hands of the bosses and their employers, the special interests. An invisible empire has been set up above the forms of democracy.
Woodrow Wilson
Open covenants of peace, openly arrived at.
Woodrow Wilson
America was born to exemplify that devotion to the elements of righteousness which are derived from the revelations of the Holy Scripture.
Woodrow Wilson
We grow through our dreams. All great men and women are dreamers. Some, however, allow their dreams to die. You should nurse your dreams and protect them through bad times and tough times to the sunshine and light which always come.
Woodrow Wilson
I not only use all the brains that I have, but all that I can borrow.

I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country.
Woodrow Wilson
What we seek is the reign of law, based upon the consent of the governed and sustained by the organized opinion of mankind.
Woodrow Wilson
While we are fighting for freedom, we must see, among other things, that labor is free.
Woodrow Wilson
It is just as hard to do your duty when men are sneering at you as when they are shouting at you.
Woodrow Wilson

Woodrow Wilson
This is history written in lightning.
Woodrow Wilson
Golf is a game in which one endeavors to control a ball with implements ill adapted for the purpose.
Woodrow Wilson
Power consists in one's capacity to link his will with the purpose of others, to lead by reason and a gift of cooperation.
Woodrow Wilson
Our object now, as then, is to vindicate the principles of peace and justice in the life of the world as against selfish and autocratic power, and to set up among the really free and self-governed peoples of the world such a concert of purpose and of action as will henceforth insure the observance of those principles.
Woodrow Wilson
If you wish your children to be Christians you must really take the trouble to be Christian yourselves. Those are the only terms upon which the home will work the gracious miracle.
Woodrow Wilson
Every one at the bottom of his heart cherishes vanity even the toad thinks himself good-looking,--rather tawny perhaps, but look at his eye!
Woodrow Wilson
By 'radical,' I understand one who goes too far by 'conservative,' one who does not go far enough by 'reactionary,' one who won't go at all.
Woodrow Wilson
Politics is a war of causes a joust of principles.
Woodrow Wilson
