Will Rogers
I don't make jokes. I just watch the government and report the facts.
Will Rogers
Politics is not worrying this country one-tenth as much as where to find a parking space.
Will Rogers
Always drink upstream from the herd.
Will Rogers
Do the best you can, and don't take life too serious.
Will Rogers
I'm not against (bull fighting). Some nations like to see blood, and some like to see their victims suffer from speculation... They kill the bull very quick. Wall Street lets you live and suffer.
Will Rogers
You can't fool all of the people all of the time. But it isn't necessary.
Will Rogers
We have plenty of Confidence in this country, but we are a little short of good men to place our Confidence in.
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
If this depression stays with us, the loser Tuesday is going to be the winner.
Will Rogers
With Congress, every time they make a joke it's a law, and every time they make a law it's a joke.
Will Rogers
We are the only nation in the world that waits till we get into a war before we start getting ready for it.
Will Rogers
A Democrat is just like a baby. If it's hollering and making a lot of noise, there is nothing serious the matter with it. When it's quiet and doesn't pay much attention to anything, that's when it's really dangerous.
Will Rogers
You can't legislate intelligence and common sense into people.
Will Rogers
I don't care how poor and inefficient a little country is - they like to run their own business. I know men that would -make my wife a better husband than I am but, darn it, I'm not going to give her to 'em.
Will Rogers
I don't see why a man shouldn't pay an inheritance tax. If a Country is good enough to pay taxes to while you are living, it's good enough to pay in after you die. By the time you die you should be so used to paying taxes that it would just be almost second nature to you.
Will Rogers
I never met a man I didn't get a kind of strange and exciting tingling sensation from.
Will Rogers
Never slap a man who's chewing tobacco.
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
The farmer has to be an optimist or he wouldn't still be a farmer.
