More quotes by Will Rogers
You can't tell what a man is like or what he is thinking when you are looking at him. You must get around behind him and see what he has been looking at.
Will Rogers
If you want to know how a man stands, go among the people who are in his same business.
Will Rogers
Now they got such a high inheritance tax on 'em that you won't catch these old rich boys dying promiscuously like they did. This bill makes patriots out of everybody. You sure do die for your country if you die from now on.
Will Rogers
Nothing makes a man, or a body of men, as mad as the truth. If there is no truth in it, they laugh it off.
Will Rogers
An economist is a man that can tell you...what can happen under any given condition, and his guess is liable to be as good as anybody else's too.
Will Rogers
If you make any money, the government shoves you in the creek once a year with it in your pockets, and all that don't get wet you can keep.
Will Rogers
The fellow that can only see a week ahead is always the popular fellow, for he is looking with the crowd. But the one that can see years ahead, he has a telescope but he can't make anybody believe that he has it.
Will Rogers
The only time people dislike gossip is when you gossip about them.
Will Rogers
The problem ain't what people know. It's what people know that ain't so that's the problem.
Will Rogers
I haven't seen a tractor working all day. The country has gone sane and got back to horses. Farmers all look worse, but they feel better.
Will Rogers
I guess truth can hurt you worse in an election than about anything that can happen to you.
Will Rogers
In politics practically everything you hear is scandal, and besides, the funny thing is that the things they are whispering ain't half has bad as the things they have been saying right out loud.
Will Rogers
People learn more from observation that they do from conversation.
Will Rogers
Politics pretty quiet over the week-end. Democrats are attacking and the Republicans are defending. All the Democrats have to do is promise what they would do if they got in. But the Republicans have to promise what they would do and then explain why they haven't already done it.
Will Rogers
Lord, the money we do spend on Government and it's not one bit better than the government we got for one-third the money twenty years ago.
Will Rogers
It's no laughing matter being a Republican in these perilous times. Anyone can be a Republican when the stock market is up, but when stocks are selling for no more than they're worth, I tell you, being a Republican - it's a sacrifice.
Will Rogers
A difference of opinion is what makes horse racing and missionaries.
Will Rogers
We owe more money than any Nation in the World, and we are LOWERING TAXES. When is the time to pay off a debt if it is not when you are doing well? You let a Politician return home from Washington and announce, 'Boys we lowered your taxes. We had to borrow the money to do it, but we did it.' Say, they would elect him for life.
Will Rogers
Nobody wants to be called common people, especially common people.
Will Rogers
Originality will be rewarded in any line.
