TQS on an off-white 6 x 3.5 card, signed “Woodrow Wilson” and dated (in type) August 4, 1919. The quotation is an extract from Wilson’s philosophical essay “On Being Human,” first published in book form in 1916. In full: “We should school our ears to know the voices that are genuine, our thoughts to take the truth when it is spoken, our spirits to feel the zest of the day. It is without our choice to be with mean company or with great, to consort with the wise or with the foolish, now that the great world has spoken to us in the literature of all tongues and voices. The best selected human nature will tell in the making of the future, and the art of being human is the art of freedom and of force.” A touch of subtle soiling and handling wear, otherwise fine condition. Auction LOA John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and R&R COA.
