Will Rogers
A liberal is a man who wants to use his own ideas on things in preference to generations who he knows know more than he does.
Will Rogers

Will Rogers
After seeing kids play polo against big guys, it only shows that horses are the greatest equalizer in the world. No matter what you weigh, the little fellow is your equal on a horse.
Will Rogers
The good old horse-and-buggy days: then you lived until you died and not until you were run over.
Will Rogers
The bankers just got a good cussing by everybody for loaning too much money. Well, they got some awful nice buildings. So when a banker fails, he fails in splendor.
Will Rogers
Politicians are dumb, but they can count to 50% plus one.
