More quotes by Will Rogers
There ought to be one day - just one - when there is open season on senators.
Will Rogers
Every land or property owner in America would be tickled to death to pay 45 per cent of his profits, if he didn't have to pay anything if he didn't make it.
Will Rogers
Politics is not worrying this country one-tenth as much as where to find a parking space.
Will Rogers
You have a wonderful organization. I understand you have ten thousand here. And if you count the ones in the various federal prisons, it brings your total membership up to around thirty thousand.
Will Rogers
If this depression stays with us, the loser Tuesday is going to be the winner.
Will Rogers
You know, women always could endure more than men. Not only physically, but mentally - did you ever get a peek at some of the husbands?
Will Rogers
Common sense is not an issue in politics--it's an affliction.
Will Rogers
We elect our Presidents, be they Republican or Democrat, then start daring 'em to make good.
Will Rogers
It's great to be great, but its greater to be human.
Will Rogers
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
All I know is just what I read in the papers, and that's an alibi for my ignorance.
Will Rogers
So let's be honest with ourselves and not take ourselves too serious, and never condemn the other fellow for doing what we are doing every day, only in a different way.
Will Rogers
Politics has become so expensive that it takes a lot of money even to be defeated.
Will Rogers
We owe more money than any Nation in the World, and we are LOWERING TAXES. When is the time to pay off a debt if it is not when you are doing well? You let a Politician return home from Washington and announce, 'Boys we lowered your taxes. We had to borrow the money to do it, but we did it.' Say, they would elect him for life.
Will Rogers
This country has come to feel the same when Congress is in session as when the baby gets hold of a hammer.
Will Rogers
I argue with wife over what little pieces of real estate investments we should try to pay on and hold, and which to let go back. We always said, Put it in land, and you can always walk on it. We did, but no buyers would walk on it with us.
Will Rogers
If you want to know how a man stands, go among the people who are in his same business.
Will Rogers
There is no more independence in politics than there is in jail.
Will Rogers
We are all ignorant. We are just ignorant about different things.
Will Rogers
I am telling folks that the Country as a whole is Sound, and that all those who's heads are solid are bound to get back into the market again. I tell 'em that this Country is bigger than Wall Street, and if they don't believe it, I show 'em the map.
Will Rogers
