More quotes by Dolly Parton
Working nine to five, what way to earn a living. Barely getting by... It's all taking and no giving. They use just your mind and they never give you credit. It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it!
Dolly Parton
I love the accomplishments and the awards that I've received through the years. But I've always worked more for the rewards than the awards. I've always counted my blessings before I've counted my money. I'm glad that new dreams come to me everyday.
Dolly Parton
Thanks to Botox and fillers, as well as the work that I've already had, my face pretty much maintains itself.
Dolly Parton
Most country songs, certainly all the stuff I've written, are stories driven by characters.
Dolly Parton
I think the fact that I look totally artificial, but I am totally real, has its own kind of magic in it.
Dolly Parton
I always think of myself as a working girl.
Dolly Parton
I always love working with children. I never had children of my own. God has his purposes. God didn't let me have children so everybody's children could be mine. That's kind of how I'm looking at it.
Dolly Parton
That traveling man was a two time lover, he took my love, then he took my mother.
Dolly Parton
When you're 40, you can't ride the fence anymore. You gotta make definite decisions about your life.
Dolly Parton
I love thinking, I love coming up with great ideas. I just get excited. Sometimes if I get a big idea, I'm just like a kid, like I've found a new toy.
Dolly Parton
I always thought that if I made it big or got successful at what I had started out to do, that I wanted to come back to my part of the country and do something great, something that would bring a lot of jobs into this area.
Dolly Parton
I write anywhere. I'm always banging around on the dashboard. Whatever I'm doing. I can make music out of anything. Whenever a song hits me, I'll pick some sort of melody or rhythm out on it, and kind of enhance the song.
Dolly Parton
I think your values are always influenced by your family and your community.
Dolly Parton
Is forever longer than always?
Dolly Parton
lots of women buy just as many wigs and makeup things as I do ... They just don't wear them all at the same time.
Dolly Parton
I always had a very open mind and a very open heart. I always look for the good in everybody and the God in everybody. I play to that. And I just love people. I love the difference in people. I love getting to know people. I appreciate getting accepted myself, because I know I'm unusual. And I love the unusual in other people.
Dolly Parton
If people work for me over the years, I expect them to be paid what they're owed, but I don't expect them to be paid more than they earn.
Dolly Parton
I did not, thank the Lord, have to have a hysterectomy.
Dolly Parton
I’m trying my best to keep up with all this new technology and I surround myself with all these wonderful people that are in the know and kind of help me out with all that.
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.
