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
Be here. Be present. Wherever you are, be there.
Willie Nelson
If a song was ever good, it's still good.
Willie Nelson
Ninety-nine percent of the world's lovers are not with their first choice. That's what makes the jukebox play.
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
There are more serious problems in life than financial ones, and I’ve had a lot of those. I’ve been broke before, and will be again.
Willie Nelson
You can't make a record if you ain't got nothin' to say.
Willie Nelson
If you got the money honey I got the time and when you run out of money honey I run out of time.
Willie Nelson
I would like to see more airplay for all artists, no matter what age. I think there's a lot of money being spent toward the young guys, but a lot of the older guys are the ones who blazed the trail for those young guys.
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 think innately knew that music draws people together and that good music is liked by almost everybody.
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
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
Love is like a dying ember, only memories remain.
Willie Nelson
I don’t believe in adhering to any rules I don’t support and I didn’t vote for. To hell with what people think. Just be who you are and you’ll be happy.
Willie Nelson
If you can be content right now, then you'll always be content, because it's always right now.
Willie Nelson
Well, it's a Bloody Mary morning, my baby left without warning.
Willie Nelson
I got in at 2 with a 10, and woke up at 10 with a 2.
Willie Nelson
I think most art comes out of poverty and hard times.
Willie Nelson
After every tour, I think about hanging up the touring hat, and after a while of not working, I'm ready to play. I think I enjoy playing music more than I enjoy not playing music.
