Willie Nelson Quotes
'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.'
