More quotes by Will Rogers
You never know how much a man can't remember until he is called as a witness.
Will Rogers
There is a tremendous movement on to get lower taxes on earned incomes. Then will come the real problem, 'Who among us on salary are earning our income?'
Will Rogers
That's the trouble with our charities we are always saving somebody away off, when the fellow next to us ain't eating.
Will Rogers
Wall Street is being investigated, but they are not asleep while it's being done. You see where the Senate took that tax off the sales of stocks, didn't you? Saved 'em $48,000,000. Now, why don't somebody investigate the Senate and see who got to them to get that tax removed? That would be a real investigation.
Will Rogers
... while the Republicans are smart enough to make money, the Democrats are smart enough to get in office every two or three times a century and take it away from 'em.
Will Rogers
Do anything in this world but monkey with somebody eles's religion. What reasoning of conceit makes anyone think theirs is right?
Will Rogers

Will Rogers
Don't let yesterday use up too much of today.
Will Rogers
The 1928 Republican Convention opened with a prayer. If the Lord can see His way clear to bless the Republican Party the way it's been carrying on, then the rest of us ought to get it without even asking.
Will Rogers
I remember when being liberal meant being generous with your own money.
Will Rogers

Will Rogers
When you straddle a thing it takes a long time to explain it.
Will Rogers
If your time is worth anything, travel by air. If not, you might just as well walk.
Will Rogers
No nation ever had two better friends that we have. You know who they are? The Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
Will Rogers
The minute a thing is long and complicated, it confuses. Whoever wrote the Ten Commandments made 'em short. They may not always be kept, but they are understood.
Will Rogers
You have to have a serious streak in you, or you can't see the funny side of the other fellow.
Will Rogers
I bet any Sunday could be made as popular at church as Easter is if you made 'em fashion shows too. The audience is so busy looking at each other that the preacher just as well recite Gunga Din.
Will Rogers
Fanatical religion driven to a certain point is almost as bad as none at all, but not quite.
Will Rogers
