Famous quotes containing the words woman and/or wilson:

    If the heart of a man is deprest with cares,
    The mist is dispell’d when a woman appears;
    Like the notes of a fiddle, she sweetly, sweetly
    Raises the spirits, and charms our ears.
    John Gay (1685–1732)

    I am one who fights without a knack of hoping confidently ... simply a Scotch-Irishman who will not be conquered.
    —Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
