QotD: “Too proud to fight”

Filed under: History, Quotations, USA, WW1 — Tags: — Nicholas @ 01:00

[T]he example of America must be a special example … the example, not merely of peace because it will not fight, but of peace because peace is the healing and elevating influence of the world and strife is not. There is such a thing as a man being too proud to fight. There is such a thing as a nation being so right that it does not need to convince others by force that it is right.

Woodrow Wilson, speech in Philadelphia, 1915-05.
