“I loved this man and everything-
I was about to write “and everything about him”, but I’ve stopped myself this time. In the aftermath of meeting waylon, I might well have said those words. I was blissed out, starry eyed in love. I realized that this would not be a conventional relationship because he was not a conventional man. I knew I was in for a wild ride. There could be no doubt that Waylon was a wild man.”
Jessi Colter, An Outlaw and a Lady: A Memoir of Music, Life with Waylon, and the Faith that Brought me Home

“My love hadn’t diminished - it never would - but at times my patience was wearing thin. Waylon’s wandering ways hadn’t completely stopped and yet I remained resolute. I stayed.”
