More quotes by Will Rogers
Lord, the money we do spend on Government and it's not one bit better than the government we got for one-third the money twenty years ago.
Will Rogers
The theater is a great equalizer: it is the only place where the poor can look down on the rich.
Will Rogers
Strangers are just friends I haven't met yet.
Will Rogers
It is a good thing that we do not get as much government as we pay for.
Will Rogers
An ignorant person is one who doesn't know what you have just found out.
Will Rogers
Broad-minded is just another way of saying a fellow is too lazy to form an opinion.
Will Rogers
The nation is prosperous on the whole, but how much prosperity is there in a hole?
Will Rogers
Fanatical religion driven to a certain point is almost as bad as none at all, but not quite.
Will Rogers
I don't see why a man shouldn't pay an inheritance tax. If a Country is good enough to pay taxes to while you are living, it's good enough to pay in after you die. By the time you die you should be so used to paying taxes that it would just be almost second nature to you.
Will Rogers
I don't know what humor is.
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
It looks like the financial giants of the world have bungled as much as the diplomats and politicians. This would be a great time in the world for some man to come along that knew something.
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
When you figure it right down, none of us are in a really essential business but the farmer, and he raises so much that even his business is partly non-essential.
Will Rogers
Old Hollywood is just like a desert water in Africa. Hang around long enough and every kind of animal in the world will drift in for refreshments.
Will Rogers
The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for.
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
In Hollywood you can see things at night that are fast enough to be in the Olympics in the day time.
Will Rogers
The farmers can be thankful. Didn't the Farm Board decide in Washington last week that they could have cheaper interest? All the farmers have to do now is to find something new to put up as security.
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
