Let Wall Street have a nightmare and the whole country has to help them back to bed again.
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.

It is a good thing that we do not get as much government as we pay for.

Funny thing about being a U.S. senator, the only thing the law says you have to be is 30 years old. Not another single requirement. They just figure that a man that old got nobody to blame but himself if he gets caught in there.

There wasn't any Republicans in Washington's day. No Republicans, no Boll Weevil, no income tax, no cover charge, no disarmament conference, no luncheon clubs, no stop lights, no static, no head winds. My Lord, living in those days, who wouldn't be great?

See where Congress passed a two billion dollar bill to relieve bankers' mistakes. You can always count on us helping those who have lost part of their fortune, but our whole history records nary a case where the loan was for the man who had absolutely nothing. Our theory is to help only those who can get along, even if they don't get a loan.

Our whole Depression was brought on by gambling, not in the stock market alone but in expanding and borrowing and going in debt... all just to make some easy money quick.

America is a land of opportunity and don't ever forget it.

It's easy being a humorist when you've got the whole government working for you.

Now if there is one thing that we do worse than any other nation, it is try and manage somebody else's affairs.

Texas is a great state. It's the 'Old Man River' of states. No matter who runs it or what happens to it politically, it just keeps rolling along!

A Realtor is an old fashioned Real Estate man with a neck tie. A Real Estate man sold you what you wanted, a Realtor sells you what you don't need. A Real Estate man showed you what you could raise on the land, a Realtor tells you what you can build on it.

A stranger is just a friend I haven't met yet.

When everybody has got money they cut taxes, and when they're broke they raise them. That's statesmanship of the highest order.

People's minds are changed through observation and not through argument.

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.
