More quotes by Will Rogers
I guess truth can hurt you worse in an election than about anything that can happen to you.
Will Rogers
You know the more you read and observe about this Politics thing, you got to admit that each party is worse than the other. The one that's out always looks the best. My only solution would be to keep em both out one term and hire my good friend Henry Ford to run the whole thing, and give him a commission on what he saves us.
Will Rogers
This session of Congress is also to relieve the farmer again, relieve him of any encouragement that he might have received during the last one.
Will Rogers
I'm not a member of an organized party. I'm a Democrat.
Will Rogers
Hundreds and hundreds of beautiful horses in the parade and a man without a silver saddle is a vagrant.
Will Rogers
Legalize racing in every State. Sure people will bet, but they get to see the horses run and you certain can't see General Motors and General Electric and General Utility run when you bet on them.
Will Rogers
People that pay for things never complain. It's the guy you give something to that you can't please.
Will Rogers
Why don't somebody print the truth about our present economic situation? We spent six years of wild buying on credit - everything under the sun, whether we needed it or not - and now we are having to pay for 'em, and we are howling like a pet coon.
Will Rogers
Parades should be classed as a nuisance and participants should be subject to a term in prison.
Will Rogers
I have always said that a conference was held for one reason only, to give everybody a chance to get sore at everybody else. Sometimes it takes two or three conferences to scare up a war, but generally one will do it.
Will Rogers
Diplomacy is the art of saying 'Nice doggie' until you can find a rock.
Will Rogers
When you have helped to raise the standard of cooking, you have helped to raise the only thing in the world that really matters. We only have one or two wars in a lifetime, but we have three meals a day -- there's nothing in the world that we do as much as we do eating.
Will Rogers
You can't fool all of the people all of the time. But it isn't necessary.
Will Rogers
Horses raise what the farmer eats and eats what the farmer raises. You can't plow the ground and get gasoline.
Will Rogers
Politics is the best show in America. I love animals and I love politicians, and I like to watch both of 'em at play, either back home in their native state, or after they've been captured and sent to a zoo, or to Washington.
Will Rogers
Our constitution protects aliens, drunks and U.S. Senators.
Will Rogers
On prohibiting anybody from learning anything: Why, in five years we would have the smartest race of people on earth.
Will Rogers
Every man is ignorant - just on different subjects.
Will Rogers
The nation is prosperous on the whole, but how much prosperity is there in a hole?
Will Rogers
Whoever said a horse was dumb, was dumb
