Will Rogers
Don't invite me if you don't want me.
Will Rogers
I bet you, if I had met Trotsky, and had had a chat with him, I would have found him a very interesting and human fellow, for I have never yet met a man I didn't like.
Will Rogers
We will never get anywhere with our finances till we pass a law saying...every time we appropriate something, we...pass another bill...stating where the money is coming from.
Will Rogers
Common sense is not an issue in politics--it's an affliction.
Will Rogers
If you're ridin' ahead of the herd, take a look back every now and then to make sure it's still there
