I say, 'Yeah, Taylor Swift.' I think she is a smart, beautiful girl. I think she's making all the right moves. She's got a good head on her shoulders. She's surrounded with wonderful people. Her songs are great. She keeps herself anchored. She knows who she is, and she's living and standing by that.

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

My husband calls me 'catfish.' He says I'm all mouth and no brains.
Dolly Parton

I've never been pregnant, so I just feel God didn't mean for me to have kids so that everybody else's children could be mine.

I have two favorite colors - white and yellow. White makes me feel light and airy. Yellow makes me happy.

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.
