More quotes by Will Rogers
There are two things I don't care how smart you are, you will never understand. One is an alienist's testimony, and the other is a railroad timetable.
Will Rogers
Everyone is a self-made man. Only the successful admit it.
Will Rogers
Andrew Jackson was the first one to think up the idea to promise everybody that if they will vote for you, you will give them an office when you get it, and the more times they vote for you, the bigger the office.
Will Rogers
We will never have true civilization until we have learned to recognize the rights of others.
Will Rogers
The Lord so constituted everybody that no matter what color you are you require the same amount of nourishment.
Will Rogers
The money was all appropriated for the top in the hopes that it would trickle down to the needy. Mr. Hoover didn’t know that money trickled up. Give it to the people at the bottom and the people at the top will have it before night, anyhow. But it will at least have passed through the poor fellow’s hands.
Will Rogers
And the thing about my jokes is, they don't hurt anybody. You can take 'em or leave 'em - you can say they're funny or they're terrible or they're good, or whatever, but you can just pass 'em by. But with Congress, every time they make a joke, it's a law! And every time they make a law, it's a joke!
Will Rogers
I would love to see Mr. (Henry) Ford in there, really. I don't know who started the idea that a President must be a Politician instead of a Business man. A Politician can't run any other kind of business. So there is no reason why he can run the U.S. That's the biggest single business in the World.
Will Rogers
Americans will feed anyone that's not close to them.
Will Rogers
Prohibition is better than no liquor at all.
Will Rogers
Farmers have about given up hope of getting farm relief and have decided to fertilize instead.
Will Rogers
We know lots of things we didn't use to know but we don't know any way to prevent 'em from happening.
Will Rogers
We fed 'em Xmas and New Years now all the poor have to do is just fill the few meals until next Xmas
Will Rogers
Nothing makes a man, or a body of men, as mad as the truth. If there is no truth in it, they laugh it off.
Will Rogers
The more you read and observe about this Politics thing, the more you've got to admit that each party is worse than the other.
Will Rogers
Ignorance lies not in the things you don't know, but in the things you know that ain't so.
Will Rogers
Sometimes people deserve a high five, in the face, with a chair.
Will Rogers
If America ever passes out as a great nation, we ought to put on our tombstone: America died from a delusion she had Moral Leadership.
Will Rogers
I was born on Nov. 4, which is election day ... my birthday has made more men and sent more back to honest work than any other days in the year.
Will Rogers
The only way to solve the traffic problems of the country is to pass a law that only paid-for cars are allowed to use the highways. That would make traffic so scarce, we could use our boulevards for children's playgrounds.
