Providence

Famous quotes containing the word providence:

    If Germany is to become a colonising power, all I say is, “God speed her!” She becomes our ally and partner in the execution of the great purposes of Providence for the advantage of mankind.
    —W.E. (William Ewart)

    I go the way that Providence dictates with the assurance of a sleepwalker.
    Adolf Hitler (1889–1945)

    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)
