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
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
As long as there's a few farmers out there, we'll keep fighting for them.
Willie Nelson
I think there must be safety in numbers. If you f - up enough times, they forget which one you really did. They start thinking, Well, nobody can be that bad.
Willie Nelson
I still probably smoke as much as I ever did!
Willie Nelson
If you start out looking at somebody, wondering whether he's good or bad, I think you're starting out in the wrong direction. I think we're all good and we're all bad.
Willie Nelson
Sadly, there are more wild horses in holding pens than in the wild.
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
You could try to live monogamously. Good luck.
Willie Nelson
I believe in looseness.
