Bankers are likeable rascals. Now that we are all wise to 'em, it's been shown that they don't know any more about finances than the rest of us know about our businesses... which has proved to be nothing.

Get someone else to blow your horn and the sound will carry twice as far.
Will Rogers
Steak on the plate went up. Steak on the hoof went down.
Will Rogers
We owe more money than any Nation in the World, and we are LOWERING TAXES. When is the time to pay off a debt if it is not when you are doing well? You let a Politician return home from Washington and announce, 'Boys we lowered your taxes. We had to borrow the money to do it, but we did it.' Say, they would elect him for life.
Will Rogers
There is nothing that sets a nation back as far in civilization as prosperity.

The only thing that can stop hair from falling ... is the floor.
Will Rogers
Funny thing about being a U.S. senator, the only thing the law says you have to be is 30 years old. Not another single requirement. They just figure that a man that old got nobody to blame but himself if he gets caught in there.
Will Rogers
The only difference between death and taxes is that death doesn't get worse every time Congress meets.
Will Rogers
It's easy being a humorist when you've got the whole government working for you.
Will Rogers
Hundreds and hundreds of beautiful horses in the parade and a man without a silver saddle is a vagrant.
Will Rogers
If all the time consumed in attending dinners and luncheons was consumed in some work, the production of this country would be doubled
Will Rogers
A vision, without a plan, is just a hallucination.
Will Rogers
You politicians have got to look further ahead you always got a Putter in your hands, when you ought to have a Driver.
Will Rogers
If you are trying to get out of the hole, stop digging.
Will Rogers
The problem in America isn't so much what people don't know the problem is what people think they know that just ain't so.
Will Rogers
Legalize racing in every State. Sure people will bet, but they get to see the horses run and you certain can't see General Motors and General Electric and General Utility run when you bet on them.
