More quotes by Will Rogers
And the thing about my jokes is, they don't hurt anybody. You can take 'em or leave 'em - you can say they're funny or they're terrible or they're good, or whatever, but you can just pass 'em by. But with Congress, every time they make a joke, it's a law! And every time they make a law, it's a joke!

Will Rogers
The small town is passing. It was the incubator that hatched all our big men, and that's why we haven't got as many big men today as we used to have. Take every small-town-raised leader out of business and you would have nobody left running it but vice-presidents.
Will Rogers
If you can build a business up big enough, it's respectable.
Will Rogers
Things will get better - despite our efforts to improve them.

I don't make jokes. I just watch the government and report the facts.
Will Rogers
America is a land of opportunity and don't ever forget it.
