More quotes by Dolly Parton
I will not play just an evil part. In fact, I got offered $7 million several years ago to play the part that Faye Dunaway played in 'Supergirl.' I was kind of insulted. I was impressed with the money, but I said, 'Why are you asking me to play an evil witch? Do I come across as an evil witch to you?'

Dolly Parton
I know that I always wanted things. I was always proud of my people, proud of my home, but I always wanted more. I think most people do.
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.

Dolly Parton
A baby, a real live baby was the craziest thing a fan has sent. Someone left a baby on our front doorstep with a note that they wanted us to raise it. Of course, we contacted the authorities and they took care of the baby.
Dolly Parton
I'm very upfront and very honest. I don't let a bunch of stuff fester and boil over.
Dolly Parton
My philosophy is simple: It's a down-home, common, horse-sense approach to things.
Dolly Parton
If you like good ol' fashion Southern soul food then, yes, I am a good cook! My specialty is chicken dumplings and poke salad.
Dolly Parton
The world is my stage. I try to be good at it, whatever part I'm playing - even in my daily life or when the spotlight hits me on the stage to perform - I gotta be alive every second in this world. With or without the applause!
Dolly Parton
I describe my look as a blend of mother goose, cinderella, and the local hooker!
Dolly Parton
A lot of dreams can turn to nightmares... if you don't really work them.
Dolly Parton
Speaking of the devil, well here he comes now. Got my defenses down. And I'd go through hell to make him mine.
Dolly Parton
Everybody has a purpose.
