More quotes by Dolly Parton
My philosophy is simple: It's a down-home, common, horse-sense approach to things.
Dolly Parton
That's the great thing about a sense of humor and a sex drive, you can't wait to share it with everybody else.
Dolly Parton
Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Merle Haggard, Hank Williams. All of them are different styles, but those are the songs that make the times. They're the songs that last through time.
Dolly Parton
When I'm inspired, I get excited because I can't wait to see what I'll come up with next.
Dolly Parton
After you reach a certain age, they think you’re over. Well, I will never be over. I’ll be making records if I have to sell them out of the trunk of my car. I’ve done that in my past, and I’d do it again.
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
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
I haven't stopped working since I was 10.
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
Dream more, learn more, care more, and be more.
Dolly Parton
I love everybody. My heart's open to everybody.
Dolly Parton
You are the song of every bird, you are the poet's every word, every artist's picture, every writer's play.
Dolly Parton
When people say to me less is more I reply, 'More is more'.
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've copyrighted 3,000 songs.
Dolly Parton
People always ask me how long it takes to do my hair. I don’t know, I’m never there.
Dolly Parton
I think everyone should be with who they love. I don't want to be controversial or stir up a bunch of trouble but people are going to love who they are going to love. I think gay couples should be allowed to marry. They should suffer just like us heterosexuals. Ha ha ha!
Dolly Parton
I never have thought I was beautiful and I never can get beautiful enough. I'm always doing whatever I can to look as good as I can, nipping and tucking if necessary. When you're older, you probably look more bizarre to people. But I don't care. I'm just totally convinced that it's more important that I be happy with me.
Dolly Parton
I often joke that 100 years from now I hope people are saying, 'Dang, she looks good for her age!'
Dolly Parton
I was probably 7 years old when I started playing the guitar and writing some serious songs.
