• Woodrow Wilson : [Reading a newspaper clipping]  A weak and imbecile man, the weakest I've ever knew in a high place. If I wanted to paint a despot, a man perfectly regardless of every Constitutional right of the people, I would paint his hideous form.

  Eleanor Wilson : That's outrageous!

  Woodrow Wilson : When he goes out of office next March, the whole country except thieves, cowards, public plunderers, office holders, and traitors will rejoice.

  Edith Bolling Galt : [Slamming down a coffee pot]  Woodrow, that's the last straw! You've got to do something about it. They've no right to say such things about you, even to win an election.

  Woodrow Wilson : Oh, they weren't talking about me. That's what they said about Abraham Lincoln when he was running for reelection in 1864.
