More quotes by Dolly Parton
I don't know what the big deal is about old age. Old people who shine from the inside look 10 to 20 years younger.
Dolly Parton
I'll never harden my heart but I've toughened the muscles around it.
Dolly Parton
I wanted to write a book that talked about the emotions of children, which is the rainbow. We all have moods. We talk about being blue when we're sad, and being yellow when we're cowards, and when we're mad, we're red.
Dolly Parton

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
I have a strict policy that nobody cries alone in my presence.

Dolly Parton
A tree reaches below the surface to gather strength for stargazing.
Dolly Parton
I think I've got my business notions and my sense for that sort of thing from my dad. My dad never had a chance to go to school. He couldn't read and write. But he was so smart. He was just one of those people that could just make the most of anything and everything that he had to work with.
