More quotes by 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
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
Be careful what you dream: soon your dreams will be dreaming you.
Willie Nelson
My doctor tells me I should start slowing it down - but there are more old drunks than there are old doctors so let's all have another round.
Willie Nelson
Freedom is control in your own life.
Willie Nelson
If you can be content right now, then you'll always be content, because it's always right now.
