More From Will Rogers

An engineer can look at the data, but he needs a translator from the cockpit - the driver - to understand it completely. for example, only the driver can tell you why he abruptly takes his foot off the gas pedal at a certain point. the data doesn't necessarily tell the engineer whether the driver made a mistake at that point or the car was acting up. the information the driver provides often helps determine the direction of development.
Mistake Data Feet
A big business man was telling henry ford about a coach driver of super-expertness with his whip. the driver was telling how he could flick a fly off his horse's ear with his whip-and, a fly alighting just then, he promptly did so. next he spied a grasshopper beside the road, and he flicked it off with equal dexterity. a little further along the road the passenger noticed an insect on a bush, and nudged the driver to get him. not on your life, replied the master of the whip. that there insect is a hornet sitting on his nest with an organization behind him. i leave him alone.

The fact is that in england so many of our politicians are career politicians - they've always been politicians since they left their education. and in the old days of course politicians used to be fish mongers or doctors or whatever. they'd lived life. these days, power seems to go to the hands of people that that's all they've done. and i'm not sure that's a good thing, because it does remove them from the realities of life.

Once in his life, a man ought to concentrate his mind upon the remembered earth, i believe. he ought to give himself up to a particular landscape in his experience, to look at it from as many angles as he can, to wonder about it, to dwell upon it. he ought to imagine that he touches it with his hands at every season and listens to the sounds that are made upon it. he ought to imagine the creatures there and all the faintest motions of the wind. he ought to recollect the glare of noon and all the colors of the dawn and dusk.

A bad putter is like a bad apple in a barrel. first, it turns your chipping game sour. then it begins to eat into your irons and finally it just cleans the head off your driver.

Living in the now is freedom from all problems connected with time. you ought to remember that sentence, you ought to memorize it, and ought to take it out, you ought to practice it, you ought to apply it. and most of all, you ought to rejoice in it because you have just heard how not to be wretched, miserable you any more but to be a brand new, and forever brand new man or woman.

It is a little bit humiliating when i have to say that chou en-lai to me appears as the most superior brain i have so far met in the field of foreign politics... so much more dangerous than you imagine because he is so much better a man than you have ever admitted.

Undoubtedly we have no questions to ask which are unanswerable. we must trust the perfection of the creation so far, as to believe that whatever curiosity the order of things has awakened in our minds, the order of things can satisfy. every man's condition is a solution in hieroglyphic to those inquiries he would put. he acts it as life, before he apprehends it as truth.

You carry mother earth within you. she is not outside of you. mother earth is not just your environment.
