Look at me! I can go from 'Donny and Marie' to Sam Peckinpah to Radio City Music Hall in one week.

If 'Bobby McGee' lasts, if 'Star Is Born' lasts, if 'Help Me Make It through the Night' lasts, if all of 'em last, man... who cares?

From Kris Kristofferson

As far as fame, the everlasting fame thing. I used to think that was important for a writer... the desire to make your mark.

From Kris Kristofferson

'Heaven's Gate' was based on a true story about the cattle people: the people who had the money turned on the settlers who were in the area. And it was mainly a defense of their behavior. And the cattlemen's association had just about declared war on these people who were poaching cattle, and because they were mainly immigrants.

The first movie I was ever on was a Dennis Hopper film down in Peru.

From Kris Kristofferson

From Kris Kristofferson

I have a special place in my heart for Nashville because it saved my life back in the day.

From Kris Kristofferson

Every time I turn on the radio, I must be on the wrong song or something. But, to be honest, since I went on the road back in 1970, I didn't listen to radio music because I didn't want to subconsciously steal somebody's stuff.
