I write a little something every day, even though I don't write a song [every day]. Everything inspires me. I'll come up with a line, or somebody will say something that will trigger something.

More quotes by Dolly Parton
I'll just wait right here for you cause I know your new love won't last. I wound easy, but I heal fast.
Dolly Parton
People like bluegrass. It's had a following amongst a lot of hip and young people. A lot of college kids like bluegrass.
Dolly Parton
We give scholarships to high school kids and a new library of books to every preschool child in the county where I was born. I didn't have books at home so I did all my reading at school. I love books and I believe that helping kids to read gives them a great start in life.
Dolly Parton
I never tried quitting, and I never quit trying.
Dolly Parton
I think every entertainer's had nights when things go wrong. I mean you can't remember everything all the time, and especially if you're having hard times personally, things going on that you - you know, and then people make it worse. And that makes you feel worse.
Dolly Parton
You'll never do a whole lot unless you're brave enough to try.
Dolly Parton
My weaknesses have always been food and men - in that order.
Dolly Parton
I hope you're never happy with anybody but me, and every face you look into, I hope you're haunted by me. Yes, I'm possessive and jealous, at least I speak honestly.
Dolly Parton
Leave something good in every day.
Dolly Parton
I'm gonna be making records anyway, even if I had to sell 'em out of the trunk of my car. I'm that kind of musician and singer.
Dolly Parton
Everywhere I go, the kids call me 'the book lady.' The older I get, the more appreciative I seem to be of the 'book lady' title. It makes me feel more like a legitimate person, not just a singer or an entertainer. But it makes me feel like I've done something good with my life and with my success.
Dolly Parton
I've been around longer than most of my fans have been alive.
Dolly Parton
We're phonies if we're not exactly who we are.
Dolly Parton
God made me the way that I am and it’s my business to be true to that.
Dolly Parton
I love to make things happen, I love to see things happen, I love to be a part of things that are happening.
Dolly Parton
Well, my smile's pretty hard to miss, considering I'm a gal who likes her lipstick-the redder the better.
Dolly Parton
Love is only as strong as your weakest moment.
Dolly Parton
I describe my look as a blend of mother goose, cinderella, and the local hooker!
Dolly Parton
'9 to 5,' that little song, that little story, just won't ever end. Just like 'I Will Always Love You,' it just keeps comin' back, popping up its head in one way or another.
Dolly Parton
Having a big gay following, I get hate mail and threats. Some people are blind or ignorant, and you can't be that prejudiced and hateful and go through this world and still be happy.
