Men were fighting with tense muscles and lowered heads until they came to realize those things.
Woodrow Wilson
The Public Record
Woodrow Wilson was the 28th President of the United States, serving from 1913 to 1921. A member of the Democratic Party, he was born in Virginia and raised in Georgia before moving to New Jersey, where he became a prominent political figure. Wilson was a key leader of the Progressive Movement, advocating for reforms such as antitrust legislation and the establishment of the Federal Reserve System. His presidency is also noted for significant events such as the United States' involvement in World War I and his efforts to promote the League of Nations, an international organization aimed at preventing future conflicts.
The proudest thing I have to report to you is that this great country of ours is trusted throughout the world.
I will cooperate with great happiness in the plans that you may form after my return, and I thank you very warmly for the compliment of this personal visit.
One advantage in seeing one another and talking with one another is to find that, after all, we all think the same way.
I have often been thought of as a man more interested in principles than in practice, whereas, as a matter of fact, I can say that in one sense principles have never interested me.
Because, realizing the great confidence you place in me, I am led to question my own ability to justify that confidence.
