We grow great by dreams. All big men are dreamers. They see things in the soft haze of a spring day or in the red fire of a long winter's evening.

The world is not looking for servants, there are plenty of these, but for masters, men who form their purposes and then carry them out, let the consequences be what they may. Woodrow Wilson
Woodrow Wilson quote: "When men take up arms to set other men free, there is..."
When men take up arms to set other men free, there is something sacred and holy in the warfare. Woodrow Wilson
Woodrow Wilson quote: "If there are men in this country big enough to own the..."
If there are men in this country big enough to own the government of the United States, they are going to own it. Woodrow Wilson
America was established not to create wealth but to realize a vision, to realize an ideal - to discover and maintain liberty among men. Woodrow Wilson
Princeton is no longer a thing for Princeton men to please themselves with. Princeton is a thing with which Princeton men must satisfy the country. Woodrow Wilson
