It would be the irony of fate if my administration had to deal chiefly with foreign affairs.

Woodrow Wilson 559 quotes

We shall fight for a universal dominion of right by such a concert of free peoples as shall bring peace and safety to all nations and make the world itself at last free.

Woodrow Wilson 559 quotes

The treasury of America lies i...

The treasury of America lies in those ambitions, those energies, that cannot be restricted to a special favored class. It depends upon the inventions of unknown men, upon the originations of unknown men, upon the ambitions of unknown men. Every country is renewed out of the ranks of the unknown, not out of the ranks of those already famous and powerful and in control.

Woodrow Wilson 559 quotes

What is the use of voting? We know that the machines of both parties are subsidized by the same persons, and therefore it is useless to turn in either direction.

I want to re-echo my hope that we may all work together for a great peace as distinguished from a mean peace.

It must be a peace without victory

I can predict with absolute certainty that within another generation there will be another world war if the nations of the world do not concert the method by which to prevent it.

Woodrow Wilson 559 quotes

We are provincials no longer. ...

We are provincials no longer. The tragic events of the 30 months of vital turmoil through which we have just passed have made us citizens of the world. There can be no turning back.

Woodrow Wilson 559 quotes

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.

Woodrow Wilson 559 quotes

The greatest embarrassment of ...

The greatest embarrassment of my political career has been that active duties seem to deprive me of time for careful investigation. I seem almost obliged to form conclusions from impressions instead of from study.... I wish that I had more knowledge, more thorough acquaintance, with the matters involved.

Woodrow Wilson 559 quotes

Thought cannot conceive of any...

Thought cannot conceive of anything that may not be brought to expression. He who first uttered it may be only the suggester, but the doer will appear.

Woodrow Wilson 559 quotes

What every man seeks is satisf...

What every man seeks is satisfaction. He deceives himself so long as he imagines it to lie in self-indulgence.

Woodrow Wilson 559 quotes

Men grow by having responsibility laid upon them.

The facts of the case will always have the better of [an] argument.

Not all change is progress.

Movies are like writing history with lightning.

Woodrow Wilson 559 quotes

I am a most unhappy man. I accidentally ruined my country. A great industrial nation is now controlled by its system of credit. Our government is no longer based on the freedom of opinion, nor on the conviction and the majority decision, it is now a government which is subjected to the conviction and the compulsion of a small group of dominant men.

Woodrow Wilson 559 quotes

Opinion is the great, indeed t...

Opinion is the great, indeed the only coordinating force in our system.

Woodrow Wilson 559 quotes

I have the feeling that he would rather see a good cause fail than succeed if he were not the head of it.

Woodrow Wilson 559 quotes

We forget that there is much m...

We forget that there is much more patriotism in having the audacity to differ from the majority than in running before the crowd; we forget that in the resistance of the minority some of the biggest things in our own history have been accomplished, and the man who looks on the Stars and Stripes and doesn't hold a right to say nay to his neighbor, even if the neighbor is of the larger party, has forgotten the history of his country.
