Will Rogers
Politicians are just a bunch of local bandits, sent by their local voters to raid the public treasury.
Will Rogers
Labor Day, I suppose set by an Act of Congress. Everything we do nowadays is either by, or against, Acts of Congress. How Congress knew anything about Labor is beyond us.
Will Rogers
