"People don't change under governments. Governments change...." - Quote by Will Rogers

“The income tax has made liars out of more Americans than golf.”

“The movies are the only business where you can go out front and applaud yourself.”

“You've got to go out on a limb sometimes because that's where the fruit is.”

“We are stereotyped creatures, imitators and copiers of our past selves.”

“We were good boys, good Presbyterian boys, and loyal and all that; anyway, we were good Presbyterian boys when the weather was doubtful; when it was fair, we did wander a little from the fold.”

“Is a person's public and private opinion the same? It is thought there have been instances.”

“All government is, in its essence, organized exploitation, and in virtually all of its existing forms it is the implacable enemy of every industrious and well-disposed man.”

“It is true that in the meantime we are suffering deeply in spirit, and incurring the horrors of a war and long oppressions of enormous public debt.”

“It is with your aid, as the people, that I think we shall be able to preserve - not the country, for the country will preserve itself, but the institutions of the country - those institutions which have made us free, intelligent and happy - the most free, the most intelligent, and the happiest people on the globe.”
