Will Rogers

Will Rogers
Will somebody please tell me what they do with all the Vice-Presidents a bank has? Why the United States is the biggest business institution in the world, and they got only one Vice-President and nobody has ever found anything for him to do.
Will Rogers
Politicians are just a bunch of local bandits, sent by their local voters to raid the public treasury.
Will Rogers
My own mother died when I was 10 years old. My folks have told me that what little humor I have comes from her. I can't remember her humor, but I can remember her love and understanding of me.
Will Rogers
You can't legislate intelligence and common sense into people.
Will Rogers
