More quotes by Will Rogers
The sales tax is the best and most equitable tax. The gasoline tax, which is nothing but a sales tax, has proven painless, productive and punitive. Everything we buy should have its equal proportion of tax, outside of cheap food and cheap clothes.
Will Rogers
If everybody (traded his car for a horse) they would be out of debt in a couple of years. Just think, no gas, no tires, no roads to pay for.
Will Rogers
It rained in the Middle West. Farmers are learning that the relief they get from the sky beats what they get from Washington.
Will Rogers
I was born because it was a habit in those days, people didn't know anything else.
Will Rogers
It is not the return on my investment that I am concerned about it's the return of my investment
Will Rogers
The South is dry and will vote dry. That is, everybody that is sober enough to stagger to the polls will.

Will Rogers
I hope we never live to see the day when a thing is as bad as some of our newspapers make it.
Will Rogers
When everybody has got money they cut taxes, and when they're broke they raise them. That's statesmanship of the highest order.
Will Rogers
This stuff they are talking here in Congress costs the people of the United States $44 a page. That's beside what it costs to ship it to the asylums where it's read.
Will Rogers
You shouldn't say anything mean about people who can't read. You should write it instead.
Will Rogers
This thing of being a hero, about the main thing to it is to know when to die.
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
These dust storms.... Poor farmer spent a lifetime fixin' his farm and everything, goes out and looks down at it, and it's up above him.
Will Rogers
A vision, without a plan, is just a hallucination.
Will Rogers
The only thing that can stop hair from falling ... is the floor.
Will Rogers
You can't say civilization don't advance... in every war they kill you in a new way.
Will Rogers
The Republicans have their splits right after election and Democrats have theirs just before an election.
