Will Rogers

Will Rogers
In Hollywood you can see things at night that are fast enough to be in the Olympics in the day time.

The minute a thing is long and complicated, it confuses. Whoever wrote the Ten Commandments made 'em short. They may not always be kept, but they are understood.
Will Rogers
You can take any line of business and skill and the ones who do it the best are the ones who get the most money for it.
Will Rogers
It's easy being a humorist when you've got the whole government working for you.
