I traveled a good deal all over the world, and I got along pretty good in all these foreign countries, for I have a theory that it's their country and they got a right to run it like they want to.

More quotes by Will Rogers
Don't squat with your spurs on.
Will Rogers
There is a terrible lot of us who don't think that we come from a monkey, but if there are some people who think that they do, why, it's not our business to rob them of what little pleasure they might get out of imagining it.
Will Rogers
Funny thing about being a U.S. senator, the only thing the law says you have to be is 30 years old. Not another single requirement. They just figure that a man that old got nobody to blame but himself if he gets caught in there.
Will Rogers
People learn more from observation that they do from conversation.
Will Rogers
A Republican moves slowly. They are what we call conservatives. A conservative is a man who has plenty of money and doesn't see any reason why he shouldn't always have plenty of money. A Democrat is a fellow who never had any, but doesn't see any reason why he shouldn't have some.
Will Rogers
There is a horse here-the furthest north of any horse, and he eats fish and travels on snowshoes.
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
Will Rogers
Politics is not worrying this country one-tenth as much as where to find a parking space.
Will Rogers
Diplomacy is the art of saying 'Nice doggie' until you can find a rock.
Will Rogers
Every time somebody has thought of relief for the farmer it has been to make it so he could borrow more money. What he needs is some way to pay back. Not some way to borrow more.
Will Rogers
Ability is all right but if it is not backed up by honesty and public confidence you will never be a successful person. The best a man can do is to arrive at the top in his chosen profession. I have always maintained that one profession is deserving of as much honor as another provided it is honorable.
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
Whoever said a horse was dumb, was dumb
Will Rogers
When I die, my epitaph or whatever you call those signs on gravestones is going to read: I joked about every prominent man of my time, but I never met a man I didn't like. I am so proud of that I can hardly wait to die so it can be carved. And when you come to my grave you will find me sitting there, proudly reading it.
Will Rogers
I guess there is nothing that will get your mind off everything like golf. I have never been depressed enough to take up the game, but they say you get so sore at yourself you forget to hate your enemies.
Will Rogers
Everytime a lawyer writes something, he is not writing for posterity, he is writing something so that endless others of his craft can make a living out of trying to figure out what he said. Course perhaps he really haden't said anything, that's what makes it so hard to explain.
Will Rogers
Every Harvard class should have one Democrat to rescue it from oblivion.
Will Rogers
Some guy invented Vitamin A out of a carrot. I'll bet he can't invent a good meal out of one.
Will Rogers
The only real diplomacy ever performed by a diplomat is in deceiving their own people after their dumbness has got them into a war.
Will Rogers
The American people are a very generous people and will forgive almost any weakness, with the possible, exception of stupidity.
Will Rogers
