More quotes by 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
When I give a man an office, I watch him carefully to see whether he is swelling or growing.
Woodrow Wilson

Woodrow Wilson
There is a very holy and a very terrible isolation for the conscience of every man who seeks to read the destiny in affairs for others as well as for himself, for a nation as well as for individuals. That privacy no man can intrude upon. That lonely search of the spirit for the right perhaps no man can assist.
Woodrow Wilson
No man that does not see visions will ever realize any high hope or undertake any high enterprise.
Woodrow Wilson
The roll of honor consists of the names of meant who have squared their conduct by ideals of duty.
Woodrow Wilson
Property as compared with humanity, as compared with the red blood in the American people, must take second place, not first place.
Woodrow Wilson
If you want to make enemies, try to change something.
Woodrow Wilson
America was born a Christian nation.
Woodrow Wilson
I am sorry for men who do not read the Bible every day. I wonder why they deprive themselves of the strength and pleasure.
Woodrow Wilson
Segregation is not humiliating but a benefit...
Woodrow Wilson
When you come into the presence of a leader of men, you know that you have come into the presence of fire - that it is best not uncautiously to touch that man - that there is something that makes it dangerous to cross him.
Woodrow Wilson
The truth is we are all caught in a great economic system which is heartless.
