Will Rogers was an American cowboy, humorist, social commentator, and actor. He was widely admired.

[Note: from a card I had framed and now have in my kitchen next to photos of my Mom and Dad. The card describes the quotation as a “Native American Proverb.” However, it more likely sounds like something Will Rogers would have said or written! I’ll go with BrainyQuote.com on this one.]
