Woodrow Wilson actually said...

"We have got the men to waste, but God forbid that we should waste them."

"Let no man dare to say, if he would speak the truth, that the question of preparation for national defense is a question of war or of peace."

"America will always seek to the last point at which her honor is involved to avoid the things which disturb the peace of the world."

"I can find no other foundation for peace than is laid in justice without aggression."
