Will Rogers
Rotation of crops and less automobiles will relieve the farmers whenever they decide to try it.

A Republican moves slowly. They are what we call conservatives. A conservative is a man who has plenty of money and doesn't see any reason why he shouldn't always have plenty of money. A Democrat is a fellow who never had any, but doesn't see any reason why he shouldn't have some.
Will Rogers
We will never get anywhere with our finances till we pass a law saying...every time we appropriate something, we...pass another bill...stating where the money is coming from.

Say, this new home building idea of President Hoover's sounds good. They are working out a lot of beneficial things. The only thing is it took 'em so long to think of any of 'em. We ought to have plans in case of depression, just like we do in case of fire, 'Walk, don't run, to the nearest exit.'
Will Rogers
The Democrats and the Republicans are equally corrupt where money is concerned. It's only in the amount where the Republicans excel.
Will Rogers

Will Rogers
The nation is prosperous on the whole, but how much prosperity is there in a hole?
Will Rogers
If a thousand shares of stocks or bonds make nothing, you pay nothing. But on a thousand acres of land you pay enough to support half the community who own no land and pay no taxes.
Will Rogers
There ought to be one day - just one - when there is open season on senators.
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
Buy land. They ain't making any more of the stuff.
Will Rogers
We elect our Presidents, be they Republican or Democrat, then start daring 'em to make good.
Will Rogers
They call it the Latin Quarter because nobody there is Latin and nobody has a quarter.
Will Rogers
What the Secretary of Agriculture is trying to do is to teach the farmer corn acreage control, and the hogs birth control, and one is just as hard to make understand it as the other.
Will Rogers
President Coolidge said, 'I don't want the Government to go into business.' Well, if I was Mr. Coolidge I wouldn't worry over that. The Government never has been accused of being a business man.
Will Rogers
Do the best you can, and don't take life too serious.
Will Rogers
It's the greatest game I ever saw. You can't lose. Everybody buys to sell and nobody buys to keep. What's worrying me is who is going to be the last owner. It's just like an auction the only one stuck is the last one.
Will Rogers
Broad-minded is just another way of saying a fellow is too lazy to form an opinion.
