No man can be condemned for owning a dog. As long as he has a dog, he has a friend and the poorer he gets, the better friend he has.

More quotes by Will Rogers
The trouble with practical jokes is that very often they get elected.
Will Rogers
An ignorant person is one who doesn't know what you have just found out.
Will Rogers
If you don't have malice in our heart, it doesn't come across harsh.
Will Rogers
A woman can make a man feel older or younger than his years if she so chooses. Being a woman is a terribly difficult task since it consists principally in dealing with men. Women were made with a sense of humor so they could love men instead of laughing at them.
Will Rogers
There's no way in the world you're going to make a political party respectable unless you keep it out of office.
Will Rogers
Last year we said, 'Things can't go on like this', and they didn't, they got worse.
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
You know you've got to exercise your brain just like your muscles.
Will Rogers
I guess there is no two races of people in worse repute with everybody than the international bankers, and the folks that put all those pins in new shirts.
Will Rogers
It costs ten times more to govern us than it used to, and we are not governed one-tenth as good.
Will Rogers
I read where they are going to limit debate in the Senate. It used to be that a man could talk all day, but now, as soon as he tells all he knows, he has to sit down. Most of these birds will just be getting up and nodding now. Why, some of them won't be able to answer roll call.
Will Rogers
Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there.
Will Rogers
There ought to be one day - just one - when there is open season on senators.
Will Rogers
You can have all the advanced war methods you want, but, after all, nobody has ever invented a war that you don't have to have somebody in the guise of soldiers to stop the bullets.
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 Republicans have their splits right after election and Democrats have theirs just before an election.
Will Rogers
A Democrat is just like a baby. If it's hollering and making a lot of noise, there is nothing serious the matter with it. When it's quiet and doesn't pay much attention to anything, that's when it's really dangerous.
Will Rogers
A difference of opinion is what makes horse racing and missionaries.
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
Show me a healthy community with a healthy economy and I will show you a community that has its green infrastructure in order and understands the relationship between the built and the unbuilt environment.
Will Rogers
