“I don't know. I just don't have the same willingness to, as they say, bend like a willow in the wind, like I may have when I was younger. I'm kind of set in my ways, and I am what I am. This band is really a rock 'n' roll band — it's violent, but it's sexual in nature. It's really harbored in its punk rock, sexual roots. It's definitely not metal. Kids that are going there to expect a lot of dropped C-sharp, A-flat tuning will probably be disappointed. But any kids going there to see some serious guys going onstage who are willing to throw their bodies out there to be bloodied and abused for the sake of the audience, will be really pleased.”
Scott Weiland
“The willow which bends to the tempest, often escapes better than the oak which resists it; and so in great calamities, it sometimes happens that light and frivolous spirits recover their elasticity and presence of mind sooner than those of a loftier”
Sir Walter Scott
“All a green willow is my garland.”
John Heywood
“Willow has given us so many amazing moments in the last few games. We've needed her to step up and she's done that.”
Carmen Dolfo
“To have the 111th here at Willow Grove ... without planes is a bad result, ... Why would you, if you were the Secretary of Defense, pay for the salary of the 111th air wing unit without planes?”
