QUOTE FOR THE TIMES



From an interview with Willie Nelson, published in the February 2002 issue of Men's Journal:
"I try not to bring the negative outside stuff into my shows, but I have made a couple of changes recently. For one thing, I sing "America the Beautiful". I think we ought to make that our National Anthem. It's not about war; there's no bombs bursting in air, no rockets' red glare. It's about the land, amber waves of grain. That sounds good to me."

-- Willie Nelson
