More quotes by Will Rogers
We are always yapping about the 'Good Old Days' and how we look back and enjoy it, but I tell you there is a lot of hooey to it. There is a whole lot of all our past lives that wasn't so hot.
Will Rogers
We have the best Congress that money can buy.
Will Rogers
If you got a dollar, soak it away, put it in a savings bank, bury it, do anything but spend it. Spending when we didn't have it put us where we are today. Saving when we've got it will get us back to where we was before we went cuckoo.
Will Rogers
Coolidge made less speeches and got more votes than any man that ever run. (William Jennings) Bryan was listened to and cheered by more people than any single human in politics, and he lost. So there is a doubt just whether talking does you good or harm.
Will Rogers
When I make a joke, nobody gets injured... when Congress makes a joke, it's the law.
Will Rogers
After eating an entire bull, a mountain lion felt so good he started roaring. He kept it up until a hunter came along and shot him... The moral: When you're full of bull, keep your mouth shut.
Will Rogers
Farmers have more Associations, and Bureaus, and Clubs, than they have pitchforks.
Will Rogers
I hope we never live to see the day when a thing is as bad as some of our newspapers make it.
Will Rogers
Be thankful we're not getting all the government we're paying for.
Will Rogers
The more ignorant you are, the quicker you fight.
Will Rogers
Let Wall Street have a nightmare and the whole country has to help them back to bed again.
Will Rogers
The Schools ain't what they used to be and never was.
Will Rogers
I have always noticed that people will never laugh at anything that is not based on truth.
Will Rogers
When you put down the good things you ought to have done, and leave out the bad ones you did do well, that's Memoirs.
Will Rogers
I represent what is left of a vanishing race, and that is the pedestrian. That I am still able to be here, I owe to a keen eye and a nimble pair of legs. But I know they'll get me someday.
Will Rogers
A stranger is just a friend I haven't met yet.
Will Rogers
You can't legitimately kick on income tax, for it's on what you have made. You have already made it. But, look at land, farms, homes, stores, vacant lots. You pay year after year on them whether you make it or not.
Will Rogers
One of these days they are going to remove so much of the 'hooey' and the thousands of things the schools have become clogged up with, and we will find that we can educate our broods for about one-tenth of the price and learn 'em something that they might accidentally use after they escape.
Will Rogers
You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or leaks.
Will Rogers
I see where we are starting to pay some attention to our neighbors to the south. We could never understand why Mexico wasn't just crazy about us, for we have always had their good will, and oil and minerals, at heart
