More quotes by Will Rogers
The good old horse-and-buggy days: then you lived until you died and not until you were run over.
Will Rogers
There is an awful lot of difference between reading something and actually seeing it, for you can never tell, till you see it, just how big a liar History is.
Will Rogers
People want just taxes more than they want lower taxes. They want to know that every man is paying his proportionate share according to his wealth.
Will Rogers
If any of us had a child that we thought was as bad as we know we are, we would have cause to start to worry.
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
Some guy invented Vitamin A out of a carrot. I'll bet he can't invent a good meal out of one.
Will Rogers
I would love to see Mr. (Henry) Ford in there, really. I don't know who started the idea that a President must be a Politician instead of a Business man. A Politician can't run any other kind of business. So there is no reason why he can run the U.S. That's the biggest single business in the World.
Will Rogers
Common sense ain't common.
Will Rogers
Don't squat with your spurs on.
Will Rogers
Don't gamble take all your savings and buy some good stock and hold it till it goes up, then sell it. If it don't go up, don't buy it.
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
Under capitalism man exploits man under socialism the reverse is true.
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
With all our crime and all our immorality ... and about as much contentment and respose as a fresh-caged hyena, we go to tell the whole world: we are the only one with the right idea!
Will Rogers
There is nothing that sets a nation back as far in civilization as prosperity.
Will Rogers
Half our life is spent trying to find something to do with the time we have rushed through life trying to save.
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
The crime of taxation is not in the taking it, it's in the way that it's spent.
Will Rogers
When you are dissatisfied and would like to go back to youth, think of Algebra.
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.
