More quotes by 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 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 comfortable in my own skin, no matter how far it's stretched. Ha ha.
Dolly Parton
Sometimes I start with a great title or idea, sometimes a great melody will run through my mind but the higher percentage of the time, the words and music pretty much come at the same time.

Dolly Parton
I always just thought if you see somebody without a smile, give'em yours!
Dolly Parton
We get along real well actually [with my husband Karl Tomas Din]. We give each other space and he's not in the business and he doesn't want to be. I'm interested in his world, he's interested in mine, but we have our own things that we do together.
Dolly Parton
I'm not intimidated by how people perceive me.
Dolly Parton
I am a tender-hearted person, and I feel everything to the ninth degree.
Dolly Parton
I still believe in Santa, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy and true love. Don't even try to tell me different.
Dolly Parton
I did not, thank the Lord, have to have a hysterectomy.
Dolly Parton
I don't judge. I'm not God. We're supposed to be less judgmental and accept and be kind and love one another.
Dolly Parton
I love everybody. My heart's open to everybody.
Dolly Parton
I met my husband before I became a star, and he doesn't care about any of it.
Dolly Parton
Mine is only one of the millions of hearts broken over the death of Whitney Houston. I will always be grateful and in awe of the wonderful performance she did on my song and I can truly say from the bottom of my heart, 'Whitney, I will always love you. You will be missed.'
Dolly Parton
George Jones was my all time favorite singer and one of my favorite people in the world.
Dolly Parton
I think everyone should be with who they love. I don't want to be controversial or stir up a bunch of trouble but people are going to love who they are going to love. I think gay couples should be allowed to marry. They should suffer just like us heterosexuals. Ha ha ha!
