More quotes by Will Rogers

Will Rogers
The farmer has to be an optimist or he wouldn't still be a farmer.
Will Rogers
You have a wonderful organization. I understand you have ten thousand here. And if you count the ones in the various federal prisons, it brings your total membership up to around thirty thousand.
Will Rogers
You know horses are smarter than people. You never heard of a horse going broke betting on people.
Will Rogers
A Realtor is an old fashioned Real Estate man with a neck tie. A Real Estate man sold you what you wanted, a Realtor sells you what you don't need. A Real Estate man showed you what you could raise on the land, a Realtor tells you what you can build on it.
Will Rogers
Every man gets an opportunity once in a lifetime.
Will Rogers
When you get into trouble 5,000 miles from home, you've got to have been looking for it.
Will Rogers
Don't be misled by History, or any other unreliable source.
Will Rogers
A lot of guys have had a lot of fun joking about Henry Ford because he admitted one time that he didn't know history. He don't know it, but history will know him. He has made more history than his critics ever read.
Will Rogers
I'm not so much interested in the return ON my money as I am in the return OF my money.
Will Rogers
Politics is the best show in America. I love animals and I love politicians, and I like to watch both of 'em at play, either back home in their native state, or after they've been captured and sent to a zoo, or to Washington.
Will Rogers
Wish all the Farmers would move to town one year, that's the only way I know to clear the thing up.
Will Rogers
Everything is funny, as long as it's happening to somebody else.
Will Rogers
We cuss Congress, and we joke about 'em, but they are all good fellows at heart, and if they wasn't in Congress, why, they would be doing something else against us that might be even worse.
Will Rogers
A holding company is a thing where you hand an accomplice the goods while the policeman searches you.
Will Rogers
A politician is not as narrow-minded as he forces himself to be.
Will Rogers
An ignorant person is one who doesn't know what you have just found out.
Will Rogers
George Washington was quite a farmer. He was a farmer, Civil Engineer and gentleman. He made enough at civil engineering to indulge in both the other luxuries.
Will Rogers
If you want to know how a man stands, go among the people who are in his same business.
Will Rogers
More men have been elected between Sundown and Sunup than ever were elected between Sunup and Sundown.
