...when you put your life in a good place, good things follow.
Willie Nelson
I don't remember Moses writing, 'Thou shalt not kill.. unless you think you have a good reason.
Willie Nelson
If you’re not crazy there’s something wrong with you. Willie Nelson
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
I'm crazy for trying, crazy for crying, and I'm crazy for loving you.
Willie Nelson
You can't make a record if you ain't got nothin' to say.
Willie Nelson
Sometimes there is a 36-piece orchestra going off in my stomach.
Willie Nelson
I'm from Texas, and one of the reasons I like Texas is because there's no one in control.
Willie Nelson
A lot of country music is sad.
Willie Nelson
When songs fall from the sky, all I can do is catch them before they hit the ground.
Willie Nelson
I like to play small clubs.
Willie Nelson
I live one day at a time, one day at a time. Yesterday's gone and tomorrow is blind, so I live one day at a time.
Willie Nelson
There's so many things going on in the world, Babies dying. Mothers crying. How much oil is one human life worth. And what ever happened to peace on earth.
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
In church I was told that if I so much as smoked a cigarette or tasted alcohol, I’d be damned in hell for all eternity... it didn’t take long for me to start thinking that sounded all wrong... I didn’t cotton to the idea that your religion should be flaunted to other people. Your religion is for you, and is best kept close to your heart.
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
Anybody can be unhappy. We can all be hurt. You don't have to be poor to need something or somebody. Rednecks, hippies, misfits - we're all the same. Gay or straight? So what? It doesn't matter to me. We have to be concerned about other people, regardless.
Willie Nelson
It was and is always nice to work with the kids.
Willie Nelson
I wanted to connect all people who are thinking about peace on Earth.
Willie Nelson
You will never find happiness until you stop looking for it.
Willie Nelson
