More quotes by Dolly Parton
Leave something good in every day.
Dolly Parton
I'm very open with my business partners, just like I am with my husband.
Dolly Parton
I will never retire unless I have to.
Dolly Parton
I was born with a happy heart, and I try to keep a good attitude. It's not true that I'm happy all the time because nobody is, and we all go through our things.
Dolly Parton
We cannot direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails.
Dolly Parton
I'll never harden my heart but I've toughened the muscles around it.
Dolly Parton
I did not, thank the Lord, have to have a hysterectomy.
Dolly Parton
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.
Dolly Parton
My songs are the door to every dream I've ever had and every success I've ever achieved.
Dolly Parton
If I could get their attention long enough, I felt they would see beneath the boobs and find the heart, and that they would see beneath the wig and find the brains. I think one big part of whatever appeal I possess is the fact that I look totally one way and that I am totally another. I look artificial, but I'm not.
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
Unless you have spent your life doing something, you are not likely to be successful, so always partner with people who are smarter than you.
Dolly Parton
I always just thought if you see somebody without a smile, give'em yours!
Dolly Parton
Don't lose your temper use it.
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've never had that much trouble with the paparazzi, but I don't run the same circles that a lot of these people that do get hounded by the paparazzi.
Dolly Parton
I listen to my old records and I think, 'How did I ever get on the radio?'
Dolly Parton
I wear make-up, and it gets a little bit thicker every year.
Dolly Parton
Of course, 'I Will Always Love You' is the biggest song so far in my career. I'm famous for several, but that one has been recorded by more people and made me more money, I think, than all of them. But that song did come from a true and deep place in my heart.
Dolly Parton
I just don't feel like I have to explain myself.
Dolly Parton
