More quotes by 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.
Woodrow Wilson
If you've made up your mind you can do something, you're absolutely RIGHT.
Woodrow Wilson
One cannot pay the price of self-respect.
Woodrow Wilson
The flag of the United States has not been created by rhetorical sentences in declarations of independence and in bills of rights. It has been created by the experience of a great people, and nothing is written upon it that has not been written by their life. It is the embodiment, not of a sentiment, but of a history.
Woodrow Wilson
It has become a people's war, and peoples of all sorts and races, of every degree of power and variety of fortune, are involved inits sweeping processes of change and settlement.
Woodrow Wilson
Here lies, in a horizontal position The outside case of Peter Pendulum, watch-maker. He departed this life wound up In hopes of being taken in hand by his Maker, And of being thoroughly cleaned, repaired and set a-going In the world to come.
Woodrow Wilson
The greatest and truest models for all oratorsis Demosthenes. One who has not studied deeply and constantly all the great speeches of the great Athenian, is not prepared to speak in public. Only as the constant companion of Demosthenes, Burke, Fox, Canning and Webster, can we hope to become orators.
Woodrow Wilson
The law that will work is merely the summing up in legislative form of the moral judgment that the community has already reached.
Woodrow Wilson
The American Revolution was a beginning, not a consummation.
Woodrow Wilson
... so far as religion is concerned, argument is adjourned.
Woodrow Wilson
If you want to make enemies, try to change something.
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
If I am to speak ten minutes, I need a week for preparation if an hour, I am ready now.
Woodrow Wilson
I used to be a lawyer, but now I am a reformed character.
Woodrow Wilson
What is at the heart of all national problems? It is that we have seen the hand of material interest sometimes about to close upon our dearest rights and possessions.
Woodrow Wilson
A man who thinks of himself as belonging to a particular national group in America has not yet become an American. And the man who goes among you to trade upon your nationality is no worthy son to live under the Stars and Stripes.
Woodrow Wilson
There must be, not a balance of power, but a community of power not organized rivalries, but an organized peace.
Woodrow Wilson
The way to be patriotic in America is not only to love America, but to love the duty that lies nearest to our hand, and to know that in performing it we are serving our country.
Woodrow Wilson
Hunger does not breed reform it breeds madness and all the distemper's that make an ordered life impossible.
Woodrow Wilson
No man that does not see visions will ever realize any high hope or undertake any high enterprise.
Woodrow Wilson
