More quotes by Dolly Parton
I don't keep up with a lot of trends. I've never been a fashion horse. I'm so busy writing my songs, trying to maintain my business, and all the new things that come along. I stay working all the time.
Dolly Parton
Some things are strange to me, and some things are odd. But I don't condemn. If you can accept me, I can accept you.
Dolly Parton
Sometimes if you jump into something too quickly, you can screw up something that might have been good two years down the road.
Dolly Parton
To me it's a two-way street. They're good to me, and I'm good to them. It's a natural thing for me to love people, and I think people sense it. ... I am secure with the kind of person I am. I don't feel like I'm better than anyone, but I'm just as good as anyone.
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.

I will not play just an evil part. In fact, I got offered $7 million several years ago to play the part that Faye Dunaway played in 'Supergirl.' I was kind of insulted. I was impressed with the money, but I said, 'Why are you asking me to play an evil witch? Do I come across as an evil witch to you?'
Dolly Parton
Love is only as strong as your weakest moment.
Dolly Parton
I was probably 7 years old when I started playing the guitar and writing some serious songs.
Dolly Parton
I'm short and I have a big appetite. I can't do nothing just a little. It's the same with anything I do. It's very hard for me to love a little, have sex a little, to eat a little. I like to do everything, and I like to do it all the way that I want to do it.
Dolly Parton
Time marches on and sooner or later you realize it is marching across your face.
Dolly Parton
I know it's corny - but I love 'Jingle Bells!'
Dolly Parton
I don't want to throw rice. I want to throw rocks.
Dolly Parton
I know the struggles of poor people, and have always kept that with me.
Dolly Parton
Goodbye- please don't cry/we both know that I'm not what you need. But I will always love you.
Dolly Parton
Sometimes my mouth is a little too big and a little too open and sounds too much like a sailor.
Dolly Parton
Everybody has a purpose.
Dolly Parton
