More quotes by 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
We just seem to have lost all our morals and principles and values these days.
Dolly Parton
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'm very short, so I just have to watch my weight because I have a big appetite.
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
Music, I suppose, will be the thing that sustains me in the time of my life when I am too old for sex and not quite ready to meet God. It has always been an essential part of me.
Dolly Parton
I always wanted to be loved.
Dolly Parton
It's a good thing I was born a girl, otherwise I'd be a drag queen.
Dolly Parton
I'm one of those people that if its something to eat I'm going to eat the whole thing, If I'm going to be in love I'm going to love you all the way and if my heart's broken, it's just shattered all to pieces.
Dolly Parton
I'm just a friendly person that runs in my family.
Dolly Parton
Some things are strange to me, and some things are odd. But I don't condemn. If you can accept me, I can accept you.
Dolly Parton
When people say to me less is more I reply, 'More is more'.
Dolly Parton
Everybody has a purpose.
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 so many people live their whole life in fear and doubt and shame.
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
My first job was singing on the Cas Walker radio show in Knoxville, Tennessee. I was about 10 years old and I thought it was big time.
Dolly Parton
I don't keep up with a lot of trends. I've never been a fashion horse. I'm so busy writing my songs, trying to maintain my business, and all the new things that come along. I stay working all the time.
Dolly Parton
It's not easy being young. It's hard to know what to do.
Dolly Parton
People always ask me how long it takes to do my hair. I don’t know, I’m never there.
Dolly Parton
