“I got my first guitar at age of 7 and never laid it down. Momma taught...” — Jerry Reed Quote

I got my first guitar at age of 7 and never laid it down. Momma taught me G, C, and D. I was off to the races son!

I used to get on a stove wood pile at 5-6 years old and I would have a piece of stove wood and kindling bark as a pick, and I was a star.

I have spent over 60 years bent over a guitar and to know that I wrote 70 compositions that masters have recorded, that makes me feel so good and full, and proud and thankful to the good Lord.

Music is the most powerful thing on this earth, and it's hard to be angry when you are listening to music.

I am very grateful to God everyday that my eyes flutter open and I can jump out of that bed!

The harvest of old age is the recollection and abundance of blessing previously secured.

I hate the idea that you shouldn't wear something just because you're a certain age.

Old age and the passage of time teach all things.

It is not possible to live in this age if you don't have a sense of many contradictory forces.

It doesn't surprise me that men in their twenties and thirties are often looking for a much older woman. What is the problem with a man of 30 being with a woman of 50? It is a matter of energy and the soul, not a matter of age of the body.
