More quotes by Will Rogers
There are three types of men in the world. One type learns from books. One type learns from observations. And one type just has to urinate on the electric fence himself.
Will Rogers
Always drink upstream from the herd.
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
If you are trying to get out of the hole, stop digging.
Will Rogers
There is no more independence in politics than there is in jail.
Will Rogers
You can have all the advanced war methods you want, but, after all, nobody has ever invented a war that you don't have to have somebody in the guise of soldiers to stop the bullets.
Will Rogers
We are sure living in a peculiar time. You get morefor not working than you will for working, and morefor not raising a hog than for raising it.
Will Rogers
I go too fast to see much, only the tops of everything. I've got to prowl slow some time through this country.

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
I guess there is nothing that will get your mind off everything like golf. I have never been depressed enough to take up the game, but they say you get so sore at yourself you forget to hate your enemies.
Will Rogers
The minute you read something that you can't understand, you can almost be sure that it was drawn up by a lawyer.
Will Rogers
Syntax must be bad, having sin and tax in it.
Will Rogers
You've never in your life seen a picture, I bet any one of you, never seen a picture of one of these old Pilgrims praying when they didn't have a gun right by the side of them. That was to see that he got what he was praying for.
Will Rogers
About all I can say for the United States Senate is that it opens with a prayer and closes with an investigation.
Will Rogers
An economist is a man that can tell you...what can happen under any given condition, and his guess is liable to be as good as anybody else's too.
Will Rogers
Being a hero is about the shortest-lived profession on earth.
Will Rogers
Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.
Will Rogers
You've got to go out on a limb sometimes because that's where the fruit is.
Will Rogers
Know what you're doing, love what you're doing, and believe in what you're doing.
Will Rogers
I make a living off (politicians), so I can't knock 'em. Every time we elect some fellow we think he's terrible and then when we get another one in he's worse. So, I am always in favor of keeping the one we've got and let the other go.
Will Rogers
