More quotes by Will Rogers
Don't let yesterday use up too much of today.
Will Rogers
A holding company is the people you give your money to while you're being searched.
Will Rogers
I guess there is no two races of people in worse repute with everybody than the international bankers, and the folks that put all those pins in new shirts.
Will Rogers
Banking and after-dinner speaking are two of the most nonessential industries we have in this country. I am ready to reform, if they are.
Will Rogers
When I die, I want to die like my grandfather who died peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming like all the passengers in his car.
Will Rogers
Steak on the plate went up. Steak on the hoof went down.
Will Rogers
The minute you read something and you can't understand it, you can be sure it was written by a lawyer. Then, if you give it to another lawyer to read and he don't know just what it means, then you can be sure it was drawn up by a lawyer. If it's in a few words and is plain, and understandable only one way, it was written by a non-lawyer.
Will Rogers
I'm not so much interested in the return ON my money as I am in the return OF my money.
Will Rogers
If this depression stays with us, the loser Tuesday is going to be the winner.
Will Rogers
One revolution is like one cocktail, it just gets you organized for the next.
Will Rogers
The best way out of a difficulty is through it.
Will Rogers
Ignorance lies not in the things you don't know, but in the things you know that ain't so.
Will Rogers
Things will get better - despite our efforts to improve them.
Will Rogers
Well, the disarmament conference is off to a flying start. There is nothing to prevent their succeeding now but human nature.
Will Rogers
The government says they have loaned over One Billion dollars to the Farmers. In other words, we can't help you make any money, but we will show you where you can owe some more.
Will Rogers
When you figure it right down, none of us are in a really essential business but the farmer, and he raises so much that even his business is partly non-essential.
Will Rogers
You know, a Communist's whole life work is based on complaint of how everything is done.... So if they ever get their country running good they will defeat their own cause.
Will Rogers
There is only one redeeming thing about this whole election. It will be over at sundown, and let everybody pray that it's not a tie, for we couldn't go through with this thing again.
Will Rogers
I do honestly believe the Republicans have reformed and want to do better. But whether they have done it in time to win the election is another thing. The old voter is getting so he wants to be saved before October every election year.
Will Rogers
Will Rogers used to say he wouldn't run for president no matter how badly the country needed a comedian.
