They are each good when they are out, and each bad when they are in.

I would love to see Mr. (Henry) Ford in there, really. I don't know who started the idea that a President must be a Politician instead of a Business man. A Politician can't run any other kind of business. So there is no reason why he can run the U.S. That's the biggest single business in the World.

Everyone wants to vote for the best and most qualified man, but he never runs for office.

Politicians are dumb, but they can count to 50% plus one.

Texas is a great state. It's the 'Old Man River' of states. No matter who runs it or what happens to it politically, it just keeps rolling along!
Will Rogers
Image
I don't make jokes. I just watch the government and report the facts. I'm not a member of any organized political party, I'm a Democrat! If we ever pass out as a great nation we ought to put on our tombstone 'America died from a delusion that she had moral leadership.'

We are all ignorant. We are just ignorant about different things.
Will Rogers
Image
When everybody has got money they cut taxes, and when they're broke they raise them. That's statesmanship of the highest order.
Will Rogers
Image
If you want to be successful, love what you are doing.
Will Rogers
Image
The only time people dislike gossip is when you gossip about them.
Will Rogers
Image
Take me ham away, take away my eggs, even my Chili, but leave me my newspaper.
Will Rogers
Image
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
Image
There is nothing so stupid as the educated man if you get him off the thing he was educated in.
Will Rogers
Image
If you can build a business up big enough, it's respectable.
Will Rogers
Image
I love horses and I only ask-don't let me know which one we are eating today.
Will Rogers
Image
There wasn't any more truth in over half of what any so-called orator said. If it wasn't a Deliberate Lie, why it was an Exaggerated Falsehood.

Farmers have more Associations, and Bureaus, and Clubs, than they have pitchforks.
