Will Rogers
An ignorant person is one who doesn't know what you have just found out.
Will Rogers

Will Rogers
Congress meets tomorrow morning. Let us all pray: Oh Lord, give us strength to bear that which is about to be inflicted upon us. Be merciful with them, oh Lord, for they know not what they're doing. Amen.
Will Rogers
I'm not a real movie star. I've still got the same wife I started out with twenty-eight years ago.
Will Rogers
We don't know what we want, but we are ready to bite somebody to get it
Will Rogers
Whoever said a horse was dumb, was dumb
Will Rogers
Rumor travels faster, but it don't stay put as long as truth.
Will Rogers
If you feel the urge, don't be afraid to go on a wild goose chase. What do you think wild geese are for anyway?
Will Rogers

Will Rogers
