More quotes by Dolly Parton

My husband and I had to raise five of my younger brothers and sisters. They lived with us. We sent them to school.
Dolly Parton
I couldn't have children, I tried to for years. I've never been pregnant in my life. When I was a girl and fooling around I was scared to death I'd get pregnant, and then when I got married and wanted to have children I couldn't have any. But I don't miss it. I did for awhile, but I realize that I am everybody's mother.
