Will Rogers
A man that don’t love a horse, there is something the matter with him.
Will Rogers

Will Rogers

Will Rogers
I never met a man I didn't get a kind of strange and exciting tingling sensation from.
Will Rogers
One of these days they are going to remove so much of the 'hooey' and the thousands of things the schools have become clogged up with, and we will find that we can educate our broods for about one-tenth of the price and learn 'em something that they might accidentally use after they escape.
Will Rogers
There is a horse here-the furthest north of any horse, and he eats fish and travels on snowshoes.
Will Rogers
When the Okies left Oklahoma and moved to California, they raised the average intelligence level in both states.
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
This country has come to feel the same when Congress is in session as when the baby gets hold of a hammer.
Will Rogers
The president says, 'There is lots of people worse off than the Farmers.' I don't know who it could be unless it is the fellow who holds the Mortgages on the Farms.
Will Rogers
