Woodrow Wilson actually said...

"What we all thank God for with deepest gratitude is that our men went in force into the line of battle just at the critical moment when the whole fate of the world seemed to hang in the balance."

"I shall count upon your friendly countenance and encouragement."

"No such movement of troops ever took place before."

"The old policy may be changed much or little, but surely it cannot wisely be left as it was."
