You've got to go out on a limb sometimes because that's where the fruit is.
Will Rogers

Will Rogers
There is a horse here-the furthest north of any horse, and he eats fish and travels on snowshoes.
Will Rogers
The United States never lost a war or won a conference.
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
The Supreme Court is divided almost in half on the decisions. Talk about an international court. How would we ever agree with a lot of foreigners when we can't even agree among our own judges?
Will Rogers
Work to make a living serve to make a life.

With Congress, every time they make a joke it's a law, and every time they make a law it's a joke.

An economist is a man that can tell you...what can happen under any given condition, and his guess is liable to be as good as anybody else's too.
Will Rogers
President Coolidge said, 'I don't want the Government to go into business.' Well, if I was Mr. Coolidge I wouldn't worry over that. The Government never has been accused of being a business man.

Will Rogers
I don't make jokes. I just watch the government and report the facts. I'm not a member of any organized political party, I'm a Democrat! If we ever pass out as a great nation we ought to put on our tombstone 'America died from a delusion that she had moral leadership.'
Will Rogers
What the country needs is dirtier fingernails and cleaner minds.
Will Rogers
The greatest loss of time is delay and expectation. I never yet talked to the man who wanted to save time who could tell me what he was going to do with the time he saved.
Will Rogers
America is a great country, but you can't live in it for nothing.
Will Rogers
A holding company is a thing where you hand an accomplice the goods while the policeman searches you.
Will Rogers

Will Rogers
Millions and millions of people don't pay an income tax, because they don't earn enough to pay on one, but you pay a land tax whether it ever did or ever will earn you a penny. You should pay on things that you buy outside of bare necessities. I think this sales tax is the best tax we have had in years.
