Will Rogers
If you eliminate the names of Lincoln, Washington, Roosevelt, Jackson and Wilson, both conventions would get out three days earlier.
Will Rogers
This thing of being a hero, about the main thing to it is to know when to die.
Will Rogers
It's getting so if a man wants to stand well socially, he can't afford to be seen with either the Democrats or the Republicans.
Will Rogers
You should never try and teach a pig to read for two reasons. First, it's impossible and secondly, it annoys the hell out of the pig!.
Will Rogers
If a thousand shares of stocks or bonds make nothing, you pay nothing. But on a thousand acres of land you pay enough to support half the community who own no land and pay no taxes.
Will Rogers
I see by the papers that they are going to do away with all the nuisance taxes. That means that a man can get a marriage license for nothing.
Will Rogers
The trouble with our praying is, we just do it as a means of last resort.
Will Rogers
I would never make a good economist. You know, an economist is a man that can tell you anything about — well, he will tell you what can happen under any given condition — and his guess is liable to be as good as anybody else's, too.
