1. Rogers is a great one
which is why I have had another quote of his as my sig line for years here on DU and on DailyKos. It keeps me sane through all the flame wars in GDP and GD.

2. Succesful comics are enlightened ones
and Will Rogers was one of the best.

Thanks for starting my day with a laugh!
