More quotes by Dolly Parton
I write a little something every day, even though I don't write a song [every day]. Everything inspires me. I'll come up with a line, or somebody will say something that will trigger something.
Dolly Parton
Mine is a jealous heart, imagines things that never are.
Dolly Parton
I have a strict policy that nobody cries alone in my presence.
Dolly Parton
All the fame and fortune, glory and prestige, can't make me happy if it goes against what I believe.
Dolly Parton
A gypsy told me I was going to do great things. I was going to make all kinds of money.
Dolly Parton
I try to be good at it, whatever part I'm playing - even in my daily life or when the spotlight hits me on the stage to perform - I gotta be alive every second in this world. With or without the applause!
Dolly Parton
I always love working with children. I never had children of my own. God has his purposes. God didn't let me have children so everybody's children could be mine. That's kind of how I'm looking at it.
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 think I became more productive through not having children. I never really had the desire to have them. My husband didn't want them either, so it worked out well.
Dolly Parton
There's been a lot of talk about Jack White wanting to work with me, and I've always admired him, and of course, he lives in Nashville, too.
Dolly Parton
First thing I do in the morning, after I have my breakfast and do my spiritual work, is put on my makeup and fix my hair, and I can do my makeup in 15 minutes.
Dolly Parton
Most country songs, certainly all the stuff I've written, are stories driven by characters.
Dolly Parton
I always thought that if I made it big or got successful at what I had started out to do, that I wanted to come back to my part of the country and do something great, something that would bring a lot of jobs into this area.
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've never been pregnant, so I just feel God didn't mean for me to have kids so that everybody else's children could be mine.
Dolly Parton
I'd love to develop and star in my own children's show, write children's books, do children's albums, movies, DVDs, etc.
Dolly Parton
If people think I'm a dumb blonde, because of the way I look, then they're dumber than they think I am. If people think I'm not very deep because of my wigs and outfits, then they're not very deep.
Dolly Parton
I love everybody. My heart's open to everybody.
Dolly Parton
When the new country came out ten to 15 years ago, people my age were almost too old. But it never stopped me. I never stopped writing. I never stopped recording.
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
