Woodrow Wilson QuotesAmerica is not anything if it consists of each of us. It is something only if it consists of all of us.A man's rootage is more important than his leafage 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. America was established not to create wealth but to realize a vision, to realize an ideal - to discover and maintain liberty among men. There is no higher religion than human service. To work for the common good is the greatest creed. I not only use all the brains that I have, but all that I can borrow.

I would rather lose in a cause that will some day win, than win in a cause that will some day lose. If you think too much about being re-elected, it is very difficult to be worth re-electing. Liberty has never come from Government. Liberty has always come from the subjects of it. The history of liberty is a history of limitations of governmental power, not the increase of it. The ear of the leader must ring with the voices of the people The seed of revolution is repression. No nation is fit to sit in judgment upon any other nation. |
