Hundreds and hundreds of beautiful horses in the parade and a man without a silver saddle is a vagrant.
Will Rogers
A politician is just like a pickpocket it's almost impossible to get him to reform.
Will Rogers
I love words but I don't like strange ones. You don't understand them and they don't understand you. Old words is like old friends, you know 'em the minute you see 'em.
Will Rogers
There will never be a time when the old horse is not superior to any auto ever made.
Will Rogers
You know the more you read and observe about this Politics thing, you got to admit that each party is worse than the other. The one that's out always looks the best. My only solution would be to keep em both out one term and hire my good friend Henry Ford to run the whole thing, and give him a commission on what he saves us.
Will Rogers

Will Rogers
That's what a Congressman or a Senator is for -- to see that too much money don't accumulate in the national Treasury.
Will Rogers
It sure did kick up some excitement in the Senate when one Senator called the other Senators 'sons of Wild jackasses.' Well, if you thought it made the Senators hot, you wait till you see what happens when the jackasses hear how they have been slandered.
Will Rogers
Where I come from, they won't let me play with this rope. They think I might hurt myself.
Will Rogers
I guess there is nothing that will get your mind off everything like golf. I have never been depressed enough to take up the game, but they say you get so sore at yourself you forget to hate your enemies.
Will Rogers
But we can't alibi all our ills by just knocking the old banker. First he loaned the money, then the people all at once wanted it back, and he didn't have it. Now he's got it again, and is afraid to loan it, so the poor devil don't know what to do.
Will Rogers
Nothing you can't spell will ever work.
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
Rotation of crops and less automobiles will relieve the farmers whenever they decide to try it.
Will Rogers
We all joke about Congress but we can't improve on them. Have you noticed that no matter who we elect, he is just as bad as the one he replaces?
