More quotes by Will Rogers
Nothing makes a man broad-minded like adversity.
Will Rogers
The trouble with practical jokes is that very often they get elected.
Will Rogers
We can't all be heroes, because somebody has to sit on the curb and applaud when they go by.
Will Rogers
We owe more money than any Nation in the World, and we are LOWERING TAXES. When is the time to pay off a debt if it is not when you are doing well? You let a Politician return home from Washington and announce, 'Boys we lowered your taxes. We had to borrow the money to do it, but we did it.' Say, they would elect him for life.
Will Rogers
If you get to thinking you're a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else's dog around.
Will Rogers
Political elections are a good deal like marriages, there's no accounting for anyone's taste.
Will Rogers
If you live right, death is a joke to you as far as fear is concerned.
Will Rogers
I don't know how a lot of these nations existed as long as they have till we could get some of our people around and show 'em how to be good and pure like us.
Will Rogers
I don't think you can make a lawyer honest by an act of legislature. You've got to work on his conscience. And his lack of conscience is what makes him a lawyer.
Will Rogers
Politicians are dumb, but they can count to 50% plus one.
Will Rogers
I am always going to do my best, no matter where I am.
Will Rogers
Ability is all right but if it is not backed up by honesty and public confidence you will never be a successful person. The best a man can do is to arrive at the top in his chosen profession. I have always maintained that one profession is deserving of as much honor as another provided it is honorable.
Will Rogers
One-third of the people in the United States promote, while the other two-thirds provide.
Will Rogers
If all politicians fished instead of spoke publicly, we would be at peace with the world.
Will Rogers
It's a good thing we don't get all the government we pay for.
Will Rogers
Politics is not worrying this country one-tenth as much as where to find a parking space.
Will Rogers
If all the time consumed in attending dinners and luncheons was consumed in some work, the production of this country would be doubled
Will Rogers
The road to success is dotted with many tempting parking spaces.
Will Rogers
How is the government going to get the extra taxes? Out of the rich, or just out of the poor, as usual?
Will Rogers
The 1928 Republican Convention opened with a prayer. If the Lord can see His way clear to bless the Republican Party the way it's been carrying on, then the rest of us ought to get it without even asking.
Will Rogers
