I have a scheme for stopping war. It's this - no nation is allowed to enter a war till they have paid for the last one.
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
The man that found the 726-carat diamond in Africa, received $350,000 for it and wants to buy a farm and silk hat. Well, I can understand a man perhaps being eccentric enough to want to own a silk hat.
Will Rogers

You shouldn't say anything mean about people who can't read. You should write it instead.
Will Rogers
Get a sales tax, small on necessities and large on luxuries then a stiff inheritance tax on the fellow that saves and don't spend. That will get him either way. A tax paid on the day you buy is not as tough as asking you for it the next year when you are broke.
Will Rogers
A politician is just like a pickpocket it's almost impossible to get him to reform.
Will Rogers
The taxpayers are sending congressmen on expensive trips abroad. It might be worth it except they keep coming back
Will Rogers

Will Rogers
Ten men in our country could buy the whole world and ten million can't buy enough to eat.
Will Rogers
With all our crime and all our immorality ... and about as much contentment and respose as a fresh-caged hyena, we go to tell the whole world: we are the only one with the right idea!
Will Rogers
Farmers spend more time at Conventions than they do plowing.
Will Rogers
Politicians can do more funny things naturally than I can think of to do purposely
Will Rogers
This country has gotten where it is in spite of politics, not by the aid of it. That we have carried as much political bunk as we have and still survived shows we are a super nation.
Will Rogers
The only time people dislike gossip is when you gossip about them.
Will Rogers
Government spending? I don't know what it's all about. I don't know any more about this thing than an economist does, and, God knows, he doesn't know much.
Will Rogers
When ignorance gets started it knows no bounds.
Will Rogers
There is one thing about Englishmen, they won't fix anything till it's just about totally ruined. You couldn't get the English to fix anything at the start. No! They like to sit and watch it grow worse. Then, when it just looks like the whole thing has gone up Salt Creek, why, the English jump in and rescue it.
