Will Rogers
My father was one-eighth Cherokee indian and my mother was quarter-blood Cherokee. I never got far enough in arithmetic to figure out how much injun that made me, but there's nothing of which I am more proud than my Cherokee blood.
Will Rogers
I see where they are going to be more strict with these robbers when they catch 'em from now on, they're going to publish their names.
Will Rogers
You can't fool all of the people all of the time. But it isn't necessary.
Will Rogers
