More quotes by Willie Nelson
My fans are very forgiving. So are my wives and my kids.
Willie Nelson
But if you think of all the people who don't like me, just think of all the millions who've never heard of me!
Willie Nelson
Indecision may or may not be our biggest problem.
Willie Nelson
Inside every cowboy there's a lady who'd love to slip out.
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
You could try to live monogamously. Good luck.
Willie Nelson
(Songwriting) It's a gift. It all comes from somewhere. I started out really young, when I was four, five, six, writing poems, before I could play an instrument. I was writing about things when I was eight or 10 years old that I hadn't lived long enough to experience.
Willie Nelson
I'm crazy for trying, crazy for crying, and I'm crazy for loving you.
Willie Nelson
If I started drinking again, there would be a lot of people bringing me pot because I can't handle alcohol. I just am not a good drinker. I get a little alcohol in me and I start trying to change the world, and that's not good. A lot of people are the same way. So that's why I don't drink anymore.
Willie Nelson
We create our own unhappiness. The purpose of suffering is to help us understand we are the ones who cause it.
Willie Nelson
I believe that all roads lead to the same place - and that is wherever all roads lead to.
Willie Nelson
Well the country songs themselves are three-chord stories, ballads which are mostly sad. If you are already feeling sorry for yourself when you listen to them they will take you to an even sadder place.
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
I still probably smoke as much as I ever did!
Willie Nelson
There's a great enthusiasm for good country music all over the world.
Willie Nelson
I think Ray Charles did as much as anybody when he did his country music album. Ray Charles broke down borders and showed the similarities between country music and R&B.
Willie Nelson
Most of the stuff I've read about me has been true.
Willie Nelson
I got in at 2 with a 10, and woke up at 10 with a 2.
Willie Nelson
Those people out there like good music. They don't stop and ask themselves, 'Is it country or rock and roll?' If they like it, they will tell you.
Willie Nelson
At 82, Nelson (who wrote the song On the Road Again, among a thousand or more others) is the elder statesman of country music, a steadying and powerful voice in the industry and on environmental issues, and he's still on the road much of the year. The music keeps calling.
