More quotes by Willie Nelson
I got along without you before I met you and I'll get along without you a long time after you're gone.
Willie Nelson
I use vaporizers a lot. It cuts down on the heat and the smoke. And for a singer that's not a bad idea.
Willie Nelson
There's a great enthusiasm for good country music all over the world.
Willie Nelson
Every now and then I'll think of something to put back in the show. I just kind of play it off the top of my head. If I do it that way it keeps it kinda fresh.
Willie Nelson
If a song was ever good, it's still good.
Willie Nelson
When songs fall from the sky, all I can do is catch them before they hit the ground.
Willie Nelson
Fortunately, we are not in control.
Willie Nelson
I started writing cheating songs when I was too young to have any idea what I was writing about - broken hearts and things like that. I just think it was something I already knew, something I had experienced in another lifetime.
Willie Nelson
You don't have to be poor to need something or somebody.
Willie Nelson
If you've made your own hell, then only you have the power to escape it.
Willie Nelson
Gay or straight? So what? It doesn't matter to me. We have to be concerned about other people regardless.
Willie Nelson
I didn't come here and I ain't leavin'.
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
Just can't wait to get on the road again
Willie Nelson
When evolution has been outlawed, only the outlaws will evolve.
Willie Nelson
There's a freedom you begin to feel the closer you get to Austin, Texas.
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
More and more people are finding out the benefits of it - hemp and marijuana. The more they delve into it and research it, the more they realize, Hey wait a minute, we should give this another look.
Willie Nelson
Be careful what you dream: soon your dreams will be dreaming you.
Willie Nelson
I think the best exercise that I do is singing for an hour-and-a-half out on the stage, because, yes, I use the lung, the biggest muscle in your body.
Willie Nelson
