President Woodrow Wilson

Famous quotes containing the words woodrow wilson, president and/or wilson:

    I am not one of those who have the least anxiety about the triumph of the principles I have stood for. I have seen fools resist Providence before, and I have seen their destruction, as will come upon these again, utter destruction and contempt. That we shall prevail is as sure as that God reigns.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

    A President must call on many persons—some to man the ramparts and to watch the far away, distant posts; others to lead us in science, medicine, education and social progress here at home.
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)

    I am not sure that it is of the first importance that you should be happy. Many an unhappy man has been of deep service to himself and to the world.
    —Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
