More quotes by Willie Nelson
My sister played the piano. She’s two years older than me, and I always wanted to play something. So my grandmother got the guitar for me, and showed me a couple of chords to start off. And then I got me a book. Next thing you know, I was playing along with sister.
Willie Nelson
If you can be content right now, then you'll always be content, because it's always right now.
Willie Nelson
Rather than trying to put an end to Eminem or some other rapper, politicians should think about why they're rapping. It's easier to try to censor some kid who's swearing about poverty than it is to stop the poverty.
Willie Nelson
Three chords and the truth - that's what a country song is.
Willie Nelson
I started writing cheating songs when I was too young to have any idea what I was writing about - broken hearts and things like that. I just think it was something I already knew, something I had experienced in another lifetime.
Willie Nelson
Oh, I think it's definitely spiritual. All music is. I think it's maybe one of the highest forms of spirituality.
Willie Nelson
Once you replace negative thoughts with positive ones, you'll start having positive results.
Willie Nelson
When I was growing up, Nashville was the place to go if you had songs to sell and thought you had talent and wanted to tour and be on Grand Ole Opry [radio show]. It was the big deal back in those days to play the Grand Ole Opry. And you could travel around the world saying, Hi, I'm Willie from the Grand Ole Opry.
Willie Nelson
When you hear me, you know it's me, regardless of the song.
Willie Nelson
Just can't wait to get on the road again
Willie Nelson
I like marijuana because it keeps me from killing people. And I think there are a lot of people out there who are just like me. The reason it's not legal is because most people get up in the morning and get high, then forget to go out and vote for it.
Willie Nelson
I been a long time leaving but I'm going to be a long time gone.
Willie Nelson
We're still here trying to get the word out that 330 farmers are quitting every week.
Willie Nelson
I take it not only a day at a time, but a moment at a time, and keep it at that pace. If you can be happy right now, then you’ll always be happy, because it’s always in the now
Willie Nelson
My first job was in a Bohemian polka band, the Rejcek family polka band in Abbott. The old man in the band had another blacksmith shop in Abbott, but he liked me. All he had was horns and drums, and I was set up over there with my little guitar with no amps or nothing. I would play as loud as I wanted to, and nobody could hear me.
Willie Nelson
There is only one map to the journey of life and it lives within your heart
Willie Nelson
I still probably smoke as much as I ever did!
Willie Nelson
If you want to make marijuana legal, you've got to stay straight long enough to f - vote.
Willie Nelson
Be here. Be present. Wherever you are, be there.
Willie Nelson
When I see someone I think is cool, he's a pretty well-adjusted individual. He's not too affected one way or the other by what's happening, no matter what's going through his mind.
Willie Nelson
