More quotes by Woodrow Wilson
Understanding is the soil in which grow all the fruits of friendship.
Woodrow Wilson
Is there any man here or any woman, let me say is there any child here, who does not know that the seed of war in the modern world is industrial and commercial rivalry?
Woodrow Wilson
The ordinary literary man, even though he be an eminent historian, is ill-fitted to be a mentor in affairs of government. For... things are for the most part very simple in books, and in practical life very complex.
Woodrow Wilson
The allied nations with the fullest concurrence of our government and people are agreed that in Palestine shall be laid the foundations of a Jewish Commonwealth.
Woodrow Wilson
If Freud had worn a kilt in the prescribed Highland manner he might have had a very different attitude to genitals.
Woodrow Wilson
Once lead this people into war, and they'll forget there ever was such a thing as tolerance. To fight, you must be brutal and ruthless, and the spirit of ruthless brutality will enter into the very fiber of our national life, infecting Congress, the courts, the policeman on the beat, the man in the street.
Woodrow Wilson
Be militant! Be an organization that is going to do things! If you can find older men who will give you countenance and acceptableleadership, follow them but if you cannot, organize separately and dispense with them. There are only two sorts of men to be associated with when something is to be done: Those are young men and men who never grow old.
Woodrow Wilson
The sum of the whole matter is this - our civilization cannot survive materially unless it be redeemed spiritually.
Woodrow Wilson
Tell me what is right and I will fight for it.
Woodrow Wilson
God knows that any man who would seek the presidency of the United States is a fool for his pains. The burden is all but intolerable, and the things that I have to do are just as much as the human spirit can carry.
Woodrow Wilson
His [the President's] office is anything he has the sagacity and force to make it.
Woodrow Wilson
One cool judgement is worth a thousand hasty councils.
Woodrow Wilson
America is not anything if it consists of each of us. It is something only if it consists of all of us...
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
The fewer the desires, the more peace.
Woodrow Wilson
The only use of an obstacle is to be overcome. All that an obstacle does with brave men is, not to frighten them, but to challenge them.
Woodrow Wilson
We are citizens of the world. The tragedy of our times is that we do not know this.
Woodrow Wilson
Caution is the confidential agent of selfishness.
Woodrow Wilson
But the right is more precious than peace, and we shall fight for the things which we have always carried nearest our hearts
Woodrow Wilson
It is not men that interest or disturb me primarily it is ideas. Ideas live men die.
Woodrow Wilson
