More quotes by Willie Nelson
When I was growing up, Nashville was the place to go if you had songs to sell and thought you had talent and wanted to tour and be on Grand Ole Opry [radio show]. It was the big deal back in those days to play the Grand Ole Opry. And you could travel around the world saying, Hi, I'm Willie from the Grand Ole Opry.

Willie Nelson
Most of the stuff I've read about me has been true.
Willie Nelson
When I was out in the bars drinking and fighting I was a little bit less of a peacemaker than I would be if I'd had a coupla hits of a joint and gone and laid down somewhere.
Willie Nelson
When I started counting my blessings, my whole life turned around.
Willie Nelson
Just can't wait to get on the road again
Willie Nelson
What goes around, comes around.
Willie Nelson
Love is like a dying ember, only memories remain.
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.
