I never expected to see the day when girls would get sunburned in the places they now do.
Will Rogers
If you don't have malice in our heart, it doesn't come across harsh.
Will Rogers

Will Rogers
There is no income tax in Russia. But there's no income.
Will Rogers

The minute you read something and you can't understand it, you can be sure it was written by a lawyer. Then, if you give it to another lawyer to read and he don't know just what it means, then you can be sure it was drawn up by a lawyer. If it's in a few words and is plain, and understandable only one way, it was written by a non-lawyer.
Will Rogers
America is the first country where people go to the poor house in their car.
Will Rogers
When a fellow ain't got much mind, it don't take him long to make it up.
Will Rogers
The problem ain't what people know. It's what people know that ain't so that's the problem.
Will Rogers
Any person that don't read at least one well-written country newspaper is not truly informed.
Will Rogers
Andrew Jackson was the first one to think up the idea to promise everybody that if they will vote for you, you will give them an office when you get it, and the more times they vote for you, the bigger the office.
Will Rogers
Chaotic action is preferable to orderly inaction.
Will Rogers
Candidates have been telling you that if elected they would 'pull you from this bog hole of financial misery.' Now is a good chance to get even with 'em, by electing 'em, just to prove what a liar they are.
Will Rogers
I don't make jokes. I just watch the government and report the facts. I'm not a member of any organized political party, I'm a Democrat! If we ever pass out as a great nation we ought to put on our tombstone 'America died from a delusion that she had moral leadership.'
Will Rogers
On prohibiting anybody from learning anything: Why, in five years we would have the smartest race of people on earth.
Will Rogers
Steak on the plate went up. Steak on the hoof went down.
