Woodrow Wilson
A nation which does not remember what it was yesterday, does not know what it is today, nor what it is trying to do. We are trying to do a futile thing if we do not know where we came from or what we have been about.
Woodrow Wilson
Has justice ever grown in the soil of absolute power? Has not justice always come from the ... heart and spirit of men who resist power?
Woodrow Wilson
You must act in your friends' interests whether it pleases them or not the object of love is to serve, not to win.
