Dolly Parton
I'm not intimidated by how people perceive me.
Dolly Parton

Dolly Parton
Mine is a jealous heart, imagines things that never are.
Dolly Parton
Wouldn't it be something if we could have things we love in abudance without their losing that special attraction the want of them held for us.
Dolly Parton
I can't keep somebody from being a star, and I can't make somebody a star, and nobody can.
Dolly Parton
Sometimes I start with a great title or idea, sometimes a great melody will run through my mind but the higher percentage of the time, the words and music pretty much come at the same time.
Dolly Parton
I always wanted to be loved.
Dolly Parton
Leave something good in every day.
Dolly Parton
I have a life outside the arenas.
