More quotes by Dolly Parton
I'm in showbiz. I look at my boobs like they're show horses or show dogs. You've got to keep them groomed.
Dolly Parton
The guitar is my favorite and the one, I guess, I'm best at. But I play enough of the different instruments to be able to write with them and to, hopefully, to make myself look impressive on stage.
Dolly Parton
I can be accused of trying to be commercial sometimes.
Dolly Parton
When I sit back in my rocking chair someday, I want to be able to say I've done it all.

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
We're supposed to be less judgmental and accept and be kind and love one another.
Dolly Parton
If there's something you know and there's something you feel, but you can't quite express it, you will hear it somewhere. And you don't have to worry, because someone will get it sung out.
Dolly Parton
Everything is nothing when you got no one.
Dolly Parton
I'm no natural beauty. If I'm gonna have any looks at all, I'm gonna have to create them.
Dolly Parton
When I'm feeling a little low, I put on my favorite high heels to stand a little taller.
Dolly Parton
I've never let a rhinestone go unturned
Dolly Parton
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
I usually eat breakfast twice. I'm usually up at 3 a.m. - do my spiritual work, my affirmations, a little bit of songwriting, get my daily work in order, and by that time I've worked up a bigger appetite.
Dolly Parton
I don't want to throw rice. I want to throw rocks.
Dolly Parton
I always wanted to be loved.
Dolly Parton
