Woodrow Wilson actually said...

"Do you know of any business or undertaking in which you can get the advantage without assuming the responsibility?"

"Nothing has impressed me more, or impressed me more painfully, than the degree in which the rest of the world trusts us and looks to us."

"The world will be turned back to cynicism if America goes back on it."

"I ask you even as a business proposition whether it is more useful to trade with a cynic or with an optimist."
