More quotes by 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
When I'm driving the highway by myself is when I write best.
Willie Nelson
As adults we try to relax from the never-ending quest for reason and order by drinking a little whiskey or smoking whatever works for us, but the wisdom isn't in the whiskey or the smoke. The wisdom is in the moments when the madness slips away and we remember the basics.
Willie Nelson
Once you replace negative thoughts with positive ones, you'll start having positive results.
Willie Nelson
When you're singing, you're using extra muscles, and it requires a lot of exercise and breathing. You can't do that if you're a sissy. If I have any fitness advice for people, I'd tell them to sing more. It's good therapy, too.
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
Horses were a way to travel to get to where we are today, and it is our job to protect them.
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
How would you like to bite that in the ass, develop lock jaw and be dragged to death?
Willie Nelson
Marijuana is like sex. If I don't do it every day, I get a headache. I think marijuana should be recognized for what it is, as a medicine, an herb that grows in the ground. If you need it, use it.
Willie Nelson
Sadly, there are more wild horses in holding pens than in the wild.
Willie Nelson
I like myself better when I'm writing regularly.
Willie Nelson
I learned some invaluable lessons in Nashville that apply to both farming and show business: Do not corner something you know is meaner than you keep skunks of all kinds at a distance if you forgive your enemies, it messes up their heads.
Willie Nelson
It was and is always nice to work with the kids.
Willie Nelson
On the road again, goin' places that I've never been. Seein' things that I may never see again, and I can't wait to get on the road again.
Willie Nelson
You can't make a record if you ain't got nothin' to say.
Willie Nelson
I'm crazy for trying, crazy for crying, and I'm crazy for loving you.
Willie Nelson
Do something bad a thousand times and it's no big deal. Everyone just goes, Willie f - up again.
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
A lot of country music is sad.
