I represent what is left of a vanishing race, and that is the pedestrian. That I am still able to be here, I owe to a keen eye and a nimble pair of legs. But I know they'll get me someday.
Will Rogers

More quotes by Will Rogers
This session of Congress is also to relieve the farmer again, relieve him of any encouragement that he might have received during the last one.
Will Rogers
There wasn't any Republicans in Washington's day. No Republicans, no Boll Weevil, no income tax, no cover charge, no disarmament conference, no luncheon clubs, no stop lights, no static, no head winds. My Lord, living in those days, who wouldn't be great?
Will Rogers
Worrying is like paying on a debt that may never come due.
Will Rogers
This stuff they are talking here in Congress costs the people of the United States $44 a page. That's beside what it costs to ship it to the asylums where it's read.
Will Rogers
Everyone is a self-made man. Only the successful admit it.
Will Rogers
No man can be condemned for owning a dog. As long as he has a dog, he has a friend and the poorer he gets, the better friend he has.
Will Rogers
I am a great believer in high-priced people. If a thing cost a lot it may not be any better, but it adds a certain amount of class that the cheap thing can never approach in the long run it's the higher-priced things that are the cheapest.
Will Rogers
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
I'm not so much interested in the return ON my money as I am in the return OF my money.
Will Rogers
Common sense ain't common.
Will Rogers
Just because it's common sense, doesn't mean it's common practice.
Will Rogers
I know worrying works, because none of the stuff I worried about ever happened.
Will Rogers
I do honestly believe the Republicans have reformed and want to do better. But whether they have done it in time to win the election is another thing. The old voter is getting so he wants to be saved before October every election year.
Will Rogers
There's a simple solution to our traffic problems. We'll have business build the roads, and government build the cars.
Will Rogers
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.
Will Rogers
I can remember way back when a liberal was one who was generous with his money.
Will Rogers
I see by the papers that they are going to do away with all the nuisance taxes. That means that a man can get a marriage license for nothing.
Will Rogers
Never blame a legislative body for not doing something. When they do nothing, that don't hurt anybody. When they do something is when they become dangerous.
Will Rogers
What's considered enough money? Just a little bit more.
Will Rogers
There is no more independence in politics than there is in jail.
