More quotes by Dolly Parton
I've used my femininity and my sexuality as a weapon and a tool... but that's just natural.
Dolly Parton
I've never let a rhinestone go unturned
Dolly Parton
I know that I always wanted things. I was always proud of my people, proud of my home, but I always wanted more. I think most people do.
Dolly Parton
I've never had a divorce, but I've seen so many of my friends, my sister, my family go through that stuff, so I try to write for the people that can't write about it. I take on their sorrow, so I'm able to kind of express it, or their joy.
Dolly Parton
I still believe in Santa, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy and true love. Don't even try to tell me different.
Dolly Parton
I have a tendency to be awfully big-hearted and it's very hard for me to say no, even when I need to.
Dolly Parton
Now I usually try not to give advice. Information, yes, advice, no. But, what has worked for me may not work for you. Well, take for instance what has worked for me. Wigs. Tight clothes. Push up bras.
Dolly Parton
All the fame and fortune, glory and prestige, can't make me happy if it goes against what I believe.
Dolly Parton
I don't have to keep a diary. It seems like for the last 40 years my life has been lived in the press, so I can Google any date in my history and find out what I was doing.
Dolly Parton
If I'd married someone in show business, there'd be too much competition.
Dolly Parton
Yeah I flirt, I'm not blind and I'm not dead!.
Dolly Parton
A real important thing is that, though I rely on my husband for love, I rely on myself for strength.
Dolly Parton
I feel that sin and evil are the negative part of you, and I think it's like a battery: you've got to have the negative and the positive in order to be a complete person.
Dolly Parton
I have to not harden my heart, because I want to stay open to feel things.
Dolly Parton
People say you shouldn't have plastic surgery because if God wanted you another way he would have made you that way, but I say that's a lot of crock. If God didn't want plastic surgeons, he wouldn't have given them hands to work with.
Dolly Parton
Everywhere I go, the kids call me 'the book lady.' The older I get, the more appreciative I seem to be of the 'book lady' title. It makes me feel more like a legitimate person, not just a singer or an entertainer. But it makes me feel like I've done something good with my life and with my success.
Dolly Parton
'9 to 5,' that little song, that little story, just won't ever end. Just like 'I Will Always Love You,' it just keeps comin' back, popping up its head in one way or another.
Dolly Parton
I write what I write, say what I say, 'cause I feel what I feel, and if I did it different, it would make me a liar! So I'd rather be an honest person than a good liar.
Dolly Parton
People tend to fear what they do not know, and what they fear they dislike.
Dolly Parton
Dream more, learn more, care more, and be more.
Dolly Parton
