More quotes by Woodrow Wilson
Government, in it's last analysis, is organized force.
Woodrow Wilson
If you would be a leader of men you must lead your own generation, not the next. Your playing must be good now, while the play ison the boards and the audience in the seats.... It will not get you the repute of a good actor to have excellencies discovered in you afterwards.
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
The firm basis of government is justice, not pity.
Woodrow Wilson
Every country is renewed out of the unknown ranks and not out of the ranks of those already famous and powerful and in control.
Woodrow Wilson
Loyalty means nothing unless it has at its heart the absolute principle of self-sacrifice.
Woodrow Wilson
A little group of willful men, representing no opinion but their own, have rendered the great government of the United States helpless and contemptible.
Woodrow Wilson
Things get very lonely in Washington sometimes. The real voice of the great people of America sometimes sounds faint and distant in that strange city. You hear politics until you wish that both parties were smothered in their own gas.
Woodrow Wilson
We can afford to exercise the self-restraint of a really great nation which realizes its own strength and scorns to misuse it.
Woodrow Wilson
If you think too much about being re-elected, it is very difficult to be worth re-electing.
Woodrow Wilson
Uncompromising thought is the luxury of the closeted recluse. Untrammeled reasoning is the indulgence of the philosopher, of the dreamer of sweet dreams.
Woodrow Wilson
The westward march has stopped, upon the final plains of the Pacific and now the plot thickenswith the change, the pause, the settlement, our people draw into closer groups, stand face to face, to know each other and be known.
Woodrow Wilson
America was established not to create wealth but to realize a vision, to realize an ideal - to discover and maintain liberty among men.
Woodrow Wilson
The beauty of a democracy is that you never can tell when a youngster is born what he is going to do with himself, and that no matter how humbly he is born, no matter where he is born, no matter what circumstances hamper him at the outset, he has got a chance to master the minds and lead the imaginations of the whole country.
Woodrow Wilson
We ought to regard ourselves and to act as socialists--believers in the wholesomeness and beneficence of the body politic.
Woodrow Wilson
I must beg you to indulge me in the matter of hyphens.... You will find that I have marked out a great many in the proofs. We arein danger of Germanizing our printing by using them so much, and I have a very decided preference in the matter.
Woodrow Wilson
I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country.
Woodrow Wilson
The right is more precious than peace.
Woodrow Wilson
It's harder for a leader to be born in a palace than to be born in a cabin.
Woodrow Wilson
There can be no equality or opportunity if men and women and children be not shielded in their lives from the consequences of great industrial and social processes which they cannot alter, control, or singly cope with.
