A peacock that rests on his feathers is just another turkey.
Dolly Parton
Image
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
Image
I hope you're never happy with anybody but me, and every face you look into, I hope you're haunted by me. Yes, I'm possessive and jealous, at least I speak honestly.
Dolly Parton
Image
I embrace everybody for who and what they are.
Dolly Parton
Image
Sometimes when I'm under pressure, if I think somebody is expecting stuff from me, I'll do better than if I was just left on my own. I can sit down - I'm a skilled writer, I've been doing it all my life - and I can get down to it.
Dolly Parton

Mine is only one of the millions of hearts broken over the death of Whitney Houston. I will always be grateful and in awe of the wonderful performance she did on my song and I can truly say from the bottom of my heart, 'Whitney, I will always love you. You will be missed.'
Dolly Parton

I hope to die right in the middle of a song and right on the stage doing what I love to do. I hope to be about 120 when that happens.
Dolly Parton
Image
I'm just a friendly person that runs in my family.
Dolly Parton
Image
I've never been more moved by a voice than I have been by Roy Orbison. I loved him personally, and I loved his voice. I think of him often and frequently listen to his songs.
Dolly Parton
Image
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
Image
So many of my relatives didn't get a chance to go to school, and my own Daddy couldn't read or write.
Dolly Parton
Image
Stop this attitude that older people ain't any good anymore! We're as good as we ever were - if we ever were any good.
Dolly Parton
Image
A gypsy told me I was going to do great things. I was going to make all kinds of money.
Dolly Parton

A lot of people don't realise I came out of the Smoky Mountains with a load of songs.
Dolly Parton
Image
If I could get their attention long enough, I felt they would see beneath the boobs and find the heart, and that they would see beneath the wig and find the brains. I think one big part of whatever appeal I possess is the fact that I look totally one way and that I am totally another. I look artificial, but I'm not.

I don't judge. I'm not God. We're supposed to be less judgmental and accept and be kind and love one another.
