Will Rogers

Will Rogers
There is not a better day in the world to be spent than with a lot of wise old cowmen around barbecued beef, black coffee and good free holy beans.
Will Rogers
Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.
Will Rogers
Last year we said, 'Things can't go on like this', and they didn't, they got worse.
Will Rogers
This stuff they are talking here in Congress costs the people of the United States $44 a page. That's beside what it costs to ship it to the asylums where it's read.
Will Rogers
We're all ignorant, just about different stuff.
Will Rogers
The Democrats and the Republicans are equally corrupt where money is concerned. It's only in the amount where the Republicans excel.
Will Rogers
The farmer has to be an optimist or he wouldn't still be a farmer.
Will Rogers
