More quotes by Will Rogers
If I studied all my life, I couldn't think up half the number of funny things passed in one session of congress.
Will Rogers
It is awful hard to get people interested in corruption unless they can get some of it.
Will Rogers
Advertising is the art of convincing people to spend money they don't have for something they don't need.
Will Rogers
It ain't so much what a man doesn't know that causes him so many problems, but what he knows that ain't so.
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
Parades should be classed as a nuisance and participants should be subject to a term in prison.
Will Rogers
She was so ugly she could make a mule back away from an oat bin.
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
Here is my Farm Relief bill: Every time a Southerner plants nothing on his farm but cotton year after year, and the Northerner nothing but wheat or corn, why, take a hammer and hit him twice right between the eyes. You may dent your hammer, but it will do more real good than all the bills you can pass in a year.
Will Rogers
There is no income tax in Russia. But there's no income.
Will Rogers
We are here just for a spell and then pass on. So get a few laughs and do the best you can. Live your life so that whenever you lose it, you are ahead.
Will Rogers
You can be killed just as dead in an unjustified war as you can in one protecting your own home.
Will Rogers
The more that learn to read the less learn how to make a living. That's one thing about a little education. It spoils you for actual work. The more you know the more you think somebody owes you a living.
Will Rogers
Money, horse racing and women: three things the boys just can't figure out.
Will Rogers
Buy land. They ain't making any more of the stuff.
Will Rogers
Be a politician no training necessary.
Will Rogers
I am not a member of any organized political party. I am a Democrat.
Will Rogers
Ability is all right but if it is not backed up by honesty and public confidence you will never be a successful person. The best a man can do is to arrive at the top in his chosen profession. I have always maintained that one profession is deserving of as much honor as another provided it is honorable.
Will Rogers
Political elections are a good deal like marriages, there's no accounting for anyone's taste.
Will Rogers
Even when you make a tax form out on the level, you don't know when it's through if you are a crook or a martyr.
Will Rogers
