The Power of Words
The recent ‘Texas Monthly’ magazine carried a long article about Willie Nelson where several of his acquaintances spoke about him. Here is what Rodney Crowell said when he went to visit him. It is a good example of the power of words forming an image that’s hard to forget. -
“And as we drive up, I see this Camaro out in the middle of this field, just cutting doughnuts and spinning around as fast as it could. I said, ‘God, what’s going on out there?’ The driver said, ‘Guess who’s driving that car?’ I had no idea. ‘Bee Spears, maybe?’ He said, ‘No, that’s Stevie Wonder.’”
