More quotes by Will Rogers
The rest of the people know the condition of the country, for they live in it, but Congress has no idea what is going on in America, so the President has to tell 'em.
Will Rogers
The income tax has made liars out of more Americans than golf.
Will Rogers
When the Okies left Oklahoma and moved to California, they raised the average intelligence level in both states.
Will Rogers
I don't think either one of them knows what it's all about, to be honest with you. Both sides are doing nothing but just looking towards the next election.
Will Rogers
If everybody (traded his car for a horse) they would be out of debt in a couple of years. Just think, no gas, no tires, no roads to pay for.
Will Rogers
Common sense is not an issue in politics--it's an affliction.
Will Rogers
Give her a day, and then in return Momma gives you the other 364.
Will Rogers
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
It's the greatest game I ever saw. You can't lose. Everybody buys to sell and nobody buys to keep. What's worrying me is who is going to be the last owner. It's just like an auction the only one stuck is the last one.
Will Rogers
The American people are a very generous people and will forgive almost any weakness, with the possible, exception of stupidity.
Will Rogers
Things in our country run in spite of government, not by aid of it.
Will Rogers
A Democrat is just like a baby. If it's hollering and making a lot of noise, there is nothing serious the matter with it. When it's quiet and doesn't pay much attention to anything, that's when it's really dangerous.
Will Rogers
People that pay for things never complain. It's the guy you give something to that you can't please.
Will Rogers
I have always claimed Americans didn't want a drink as bad as they wanted the right to take a drink if they did happen to want one.
Will Rogers
Being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable.
Will Rogers
Being a hero is about the shortest-lived profession on earth.
Will Rogers
The good old horse-and-buggy days: then you lived until you died and not until you were run over.
Will Rogers
Do the best you can, and don't take life too serious.
Will Rogers
The Democrats are going to change the name of the Hoover Dam. That is the silliest thing I ever heard of in politics . . . Lord if they feel that way about it, I don't see why they don't just reverse the two words.
Will Rogers
When ignorance gets started it knows no bounds.
Will Rogers
