More quotes by Will Rogers
We are all ignorant. We are just ignorant about different things.
Will Rogers
It wasn't what we needed then that was hurting us, it was what we was paying for that we had already used up. The country was just buying gasoline for a leaky tank. Everything was going into a gopher hole and you couldent see where you was going to get any of it back.
Will Rogers
The business of government is to keep the government out of business - that is, unless business needs government aid.
Will Rogers
In Washington, one man could do what ten of them do. Things kinder run themselves, anyhow.
Will Rogers
A Realtor is an old fashioned Real Estate man with a neck tie. A Real Estate man sold you what you wanted, a Realtor sells you what you don't need. A Real Estate man showed you what you could raise on the land, a Realtor tells you what you can build on it.
Will Rogers
Mothers are the only race of people that speak the same tongue. A mother in Manchuria could converse with a mother in Nebraska and never miss a word.
Will Rogers
I love horses and I only ask-don't let me know which one we are eating today.
Will Rogers
The trouble with land is that they're not making it anymore.
Will Rogers
I have Indian Blood in me. I have just enough white blood for you to question my honesty!
Will Rogers
A woman can make a man feel older or younger than his years if she so chooses. Being a woman is a terribly difficult task since it consists principally in dealing with men. Women were made with a sense of humor so they could love men instead of laughing at them.
Will Rogers
That's one thing about Republican Presidents. They never went in much for plans. They only had one plan. It says Boys, my head is turned. Just get it while you can.
Will Rogers
You can't legislate intelligence and common sense into people.
Will Rogers
No party is as bad as its leaders.
Will Rogers
With Congress, every time they make a joke it's a law, and every time they make a law it's a joke.
Will Rogers
The more you read and observe about this Politics thing, the more you've got to admit that each party is worse than the other.
Will Rogers
When everybody has got money they cut taxes, and when they're broke they raise them. That's statesmanship of the highest order.
Will Rogers
Make crime pay. Become a lawyer.
Will Rogers
There is no credit to being a comedian, when you have the whole Government working for you. All you have to do is report the facts. I dont even have to exaggerate.
Will Rogers
In Europe public men do resign. But here it's a lost art. You have to impeach 'em.
Will Rogers
I represent what is left of a vanishing race, and that is the pedestrian. That I am still able to be here, I owe to a keen eye and a nimble pair of legs. But I know they'll get me someday.
Will Rogers
