Woodrow Wilson actually said...

"I am not in favor of the ratification of this treaty, including the covenant of the league of nations, because I am a Democrat. I am in favor of it because I am an American and a lover of humanity."

"The past is only a prediction of the future, and all this terrible thing that your brothers and husbands and sweethearts have been through may have to be gone through with again."

"I want the great result which I know is at the heart of the people that I am trying to serve."

"America responds to nothing so quickly or unanimously as a great moral challenge."
