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.

More quotes by Willie Nelson
Songwriters might write cynical, world-wise lyrics and constantly talk about money, but most of us are downright naive when it comes to business.
Willie Nelson
I am not a pig farmer. The pigs had a great time, but I didn't make any money.
Willie Nelson
We are the same. There is no difference anywhere in the world. People are people. They laugh, cry, feel, and love, and music seems to be the commons denomination that brings us all together. Music cuts through all boundaries and goes right to the soul.
Willie Nelson
My fans are very forgiving. So are my wives and my kids.
Willie Nelson
Sometimes there is a 36-piece orchestra going off in my stomach.
Willie Nelson
(Songwriting) It's a gift. It all comes from somewhere. I started out really young, when I was four, five, six, writing poems, before I could play an instrument. I was writing about things when I was eight or 10 years old that I hadn't lived long enough to experience.
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
I don't think any person has any special knowledge about what God has planned for me and you any more than me and you do.
Willie Nelson
Writing books is fun because after I do a show for a couple hours, I'm in a bus for 22 hours. It's not hard for me to look out the window and tell a joke here and there.
Willie Nelson
Nothing lasts forever, but old Fords and a natural stone.
Willie Nelson
In the twilight glow I see her, blue eyes crying in the rain. As we kissed goodbye and parted, I knew we'd never meet again.
Willie Nelson
I like myself better when I'm writing regularly.
Willie Nelson
Oh, I think it's definitely spiritual. All music is. I think it's maybe one of the highest forms of spirituality.
Willie Nelson
God has blessed you richly, so get down on your knees and thank him. Don’t forget the less fortunate or God will personally kick your ass. I’d love to do it for him, but I can’t be everywhere.
Willie Nelson
One thing I learned is that the mind, rather than being the master, should be the servant of the heart.
Willie Nelson
I'm drowning in whiskey river.
Willie Nelson
All I do is play music and golf - which one do you want me to give up?
Willie Nelson
Do something bad a thousand times and it's no big deal. Everyone just goes, Willie f - up again.
Willie Nelson
Vaporizers are good for your lungs. Cigarette smoke will kill you. I never heard of anybody dying from marijuana smoke. Vaporizers I think are smarter.
