Woodrow Wilson actually said...

"Every man regards his own advice as best, and I dare say every man mixes his own advice with some thought of his own interest."

"The council advises, and it cannot advise without the vote of the United States."

"We are not dealing with the kind of document which this is represented by some gentlemen to be."

"I ordered their sons being put in the most difficult parts of the battle line, where death was certain, as in the impenetrable difficulties of the forest of Argonne."
