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.

More quotes by Willie Nelson
Marijuana is like sex: If I don't do it every day I get a headache.
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
I was influenced a lot by those around me - there was a lot of singing that went on in the cotton fields.
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
I believe in looseness.
Willie Nelson
It's an ongoing problem, an ongoing situation, life is. It's just life, and it never stops and it never will. You just be thankful for what you've got, and move on.
Willie Nelson
There is only one map to the journey of life and it lives within your heart
Willie Nelson
We create our own unhappiness. The purpose of suffering is to help us understand we are the ones who cause it.
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
When evolution has been outlawed, only the outlaws will evolve.
Willie Nelson
Gay or straight? So what? It doesn't matter to me. We have to be concerned about other people regardless.
Willie Nelson
A frozen river is not a dry one, it's just a still river on the surface but is still moving, and so am my winter writing.
Willie Nelson
Sadly, there are more wild horses in holding pens than in the wild.
Willie Nelson
Whoever supports the farmer is the guy for America.
Willie Nelson
As far as advice goes, an ex-father in law of mine once gave me the best advice I ever heard. He said, Take my advice and do what you want to. So with that, go on.
Willie Nelson
When you hear me, you know it's me, regardless of the song.
Willie Nelson
I never gave up on country music because I knew what I was doing was not that bad.
Willie Nelson
At 82, Nelson (who wrote the song On the Road Again, among a thousand or more others) is the elder statesman of country music, a steadying and powerful voice in the industry and on environmental issues, and he's still on the road much of the year. The music keeps calling.
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
I never pretended to have a great voice. It works and I can carry a tune. If you have a good song, that's about all that's required.
Willie Nelson
