Image
We are participants, whether we would or not, in the life of the world.... We are partners with the rest. What affects mankind isinevitably our affair as well as the nations of Europe and Asia.
Woodrow Wilson
Image
The men who act stand nearer to the mass of man than the men who write and it is in their hands that new thought gets its translation into the crude language of deeds.
Woodrow Wilson

Life does not consist in thinking, it consists in acting.
Woodrow Wilson

I am a most unhappy man. I accidentally ruined my country. A great industrial nation is now controlled by its system of credit.

There is no indispensable man.
Woodrow Wilson
Image
Only a peace between equals can last. Only a peace the very principle of which is equality and a common participation in a common benefit.
Woodrow Wilson
Image

Government is not a warfare of interests.
Woodrow Wilson
Image
Provision for others is a fundamental responsibility of human life.
Woodrow Wilson
Image
You have just taken an oath of allegiance to the United States. Of allegiance to whom? Of allegiance to no one, unless it be God. Certainly not of allegiance to those who temporarily represent this great government. You have taken an oath of allegiance to a great ideal, to a great body of principles, to a great hope of the human race.

Every people has a right to choose the sovereignty under which they shall live.

The world must be made safe for democracy.
