I think [music and acting], they are connected, all that stuff. It's your emotional self, is pretty much how you do it, I think, from whatever place you do it, whether you're acting or you're singing.
Dolly Parton
God tells us not to judge one another, no matter what anyone's sexual preferences are or if they're black, brown or purple.
