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
It's a good thing I was born a girl, otherwise I'd be a drag queen.
Dolly Parton
I will never retire unless I have to.

Dolly Parton
You are the song of every bird, you are the poet's every word, every artist's picture, every writer's play.

People say you shouldn't have plastic surgery because if God wanted you another way he would have made you that way, but I say that's a lot of crock. If God didn't want plastic surgeons, he wouldn't have given them hands to work with.

Dolly Parton
Many of my friends are gay, male and female. I don't judge people. I don't care what people do in their bedrooms and people shouldn't care what I do in mine.
Dolly Parton
I write what I write, say what I say, 'cause I feel what I feel, and if I did it different, it would make me a liar! So I'd rather be an honest person than a good liar.
Dolly Parton
I'm a fool to keep staying, when you've made hurting me such an art.
Dolly Parton
Find out what you are, then do it on purpose
Dolly Parton
Wouldn't it be something if we could have things we love in abudance without their losing that special attraction the want of them held for us.
Dolly Parton
I'm pretty sure in my older years, I'll be doing old-time flavored folk-mountain music.
Dolly Parton
After Momma gave birth to twelve of us kids, we put her up on a pedestal. It was mostly to keep Daddy away from her.
Dolly Parton
I'm short and I have a big appetite. I can't do nothing just a little. It's the same with anything I do. It's very hard for me to love a little, have sex a little, to eat a little. I like to do everything, and I like to do it all the way that I want to do it.
Dolly Parton
People like bluegrass. It's had a following amongst a lot of hip and young people. A lot of college kids like bluegrass.

People get a kick out of my stupidity.
