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!

Take me ham away, take away my eggs, even my Chili, but leave me my newspaper.
Will Rogers
Nothing makes a man broad-minded like adversity.
Will Rogers
When you have helped to raise the standard of cooking, you have helped to raise the only thing in the world that really matters. We only have one or two wars in a lifetime, but we have three meals a day -- there's nothing in the world that we do as much as we do eating.
Will Rogers
The problem ain't what people know. It's what people know that ain't so that's the problem.
Will Rogers
People that pay for things never complain. It's the guy you give something to that you can't please.
Will Rogers
