When people say to me less is more I reply, 'More is more'.
Dolly Parton
Every seven years, I sit down and make a whole new plan.
Dolly Parton
The music does bring us together and it's cheaper than therapy!
Dolly Parton
After you reach a certain age, they think you’re over. Well, I will never be over. I’ll be making records if I have to sell them out of the trunk of my car. I’ve done that in my past, and I’d do it again.
Dolly Parton
I was the first woman to burn my bra - it took the fire department four days to put it out.
Dolly Parton
I think everyone should be with who they love.
Dolly Parton
I don't have to keep a diary. It seems like for the last 40 years my life has been lived in the press, so I can Google any date in my history and find out what I was doing.
Dolly Parton
All the fame and fortune, glory and prestige, can't make me happy if it goes against what I believe.
Dolly Parton
I don't know what the big deal is about old age. Old people who shine from the inside look 10 to 20 years younger.
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
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 have a life outside the arenas.
Dolly Parton
When the new country came out ten to 15 years ago, people my age were almost too old. But it never stopped me. I never stopped writing. I never stopped recording.
Dolly Parton
Until I was a teenager, I used red pokeberries for lipstick and a burnt matchstick for eyeliner. I used honeysuckle for perfume.
Dolly Parton
I wake up with new dreams every day...more I can do to channel that into things that I love to create is healthier for me and probably for everybody around me.
Dolly Parton
I just write all the time. In my whole life I've never had what I've heard people talk about writer's block. I've never had that. Life is like a song to me. I just hear everything in music, so I have never once thought Well, I'm never gonna be able to write again. I've got thousands of songs.
Dolly Parton
Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Merle Haggard, Hank Williams. All of them are different styles, but those are the songs that make the times. They're the songs that last through time.
Dolly Parton
I think I've got my business notions and my sense for that sort of thing from my dad. My dad never had a chance to go to school. He couldn't read and write. But he was so smart. He was just one of those people that could just make the most of anything and everything that he had to work with.
Dolly Parton
I do remember how it was to be poor. I do remember that in my early years, we had to grow and raise all of our food, even our animals. And I remember in my early life, we didn't even have electricity. So it was very, very hard times then.
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
