Will Rogers, who died in a 1935 plane crash in Alaska with bush pilot, Wiley Post, was one of the greatest political/country/cowboy sages ever known.  

Some of his sayings:

1   Never slap a man who's chewing tobacco.

 

2   Never kick a cow chip on a hot day.

 

3   There are two theories to arguing with a woman. Neither works.

 

4   Never miss a good chance to shut up.

 

5   Always drink upstream from the herd.

 

6   If you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.

 

7   The quickest way to double your money is to fold it and put it back into your pocket.

 

8   There are three kinds of men: 

          The ones that learn by reading.

          The few who learn by observation.

          The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.

 

9  Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.

 

10.  If you're riding' ahead of the herd, take a look back every now and then to make sure it's still there.

 

11.  Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin' it back in.

 

12.  After eating an entire bull, a mountain lion felt so good he started roaring. He kept it up until a hunter came along and shot him.

 

The moral:  When you're full of bull, keep your mouth shut.

 

ABOUT GROWING OLDER ...

First ~      Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it.

 

Second ~ The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for.

 

Third ~    Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me. I want people to know 'why' I look this way.   I've traveled a long way, and some of the roads weren't paved.

 

Fourth ~ When you are dissatisfied and would like to go back to your youth, think of algebra ...

 

Fifth ~     You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or leaks.

 

Sixth ~     I don't know how I got over the hill without getting to the top. 

 

Seventh ~ One of the many things no one tells you about aging is that it's such a nice change from being young.

 

Eight ~     One must wait until evening to see how splendid the day has been.

 

Ninth ~    Being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable and relaxed.

 

Tenth ~    Long ago, when men cursed and beat the ground with sticks, it was called witchcraft. Today it's called golf.

 

And, finally ~   If you don't learn to laugh at trouble, you won't have anything to laugh at when you're old.
