I always thought that if I made it big or got successful at what I had started out to do, that I wanted to come back to my part of the country and do something great, something that would bring a lot of jobs into this area.

More quotes by Dolly Parton
Sometimes my mouth is a little too big and a little too open and sounds too much like a sailor.
Dolly Parton
I've enjoyed all the parts of my career.
Dolly Parton
I think [music and acting], they are connected, all that stuff. It's your emotional self, is pretty much how you do it, I think, from whatever place you do it, whether you're acting or you're singing.
Dolly Parton
I have been asked to pose for Penthouse on my hundredth birthday. Everybody is going to be sorry.
Dolly Parton
I love everybody. My heart's open to everybody.
Dolly Parton
I'm in the public eye, so I don't care who knows what I get done. If I see something sagging, dragging, or bagging, I get it sucked, tucked, or plucked.
Dolly Parton
Living in America and, of course, just being women in general, we've got more strength than we think we do.
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.
Dolly Parton
I always had a very open mind and a very open heart. I always look for the good in everybody and the God in everybody. I play to that. And I just love people. I love the difference in people. I love getting to know people. I appreciate getting accepted myself, because I know I'm unusual. And I love the unusual in other people.
Dolly Parton
I think gay couples should be allowed to marry. They should suffer just like us heterosexuals.
Dolly Parton
Our own freewill, to choose the paths we take, no greater deed could ever be done than for another's sake.
Dolly Parton
All my momma's people were very musical. My grandpa, who was the Pentecostal minister, he was a great musician. He played the fiddle, he played the piano.
Dolly Parton
I don't think I'm supposed to boss other people around just because I'm a so-called celebrity or star. I hate that when people act that way. No one deserves it. I've seen it happen. I don't call those people out - they know who they are. Some enjoy that reputation.
Dolly Parton
A tree reaches below the surface to gather strength for stargazing.
Dolly Parton
Thanks to Botox and fillers, as well as the work that I've already had, my face pretty much maintains itself.
Dolly Parton
I've never been more moved by a voice than I have been by Roy Orbison. I loved him personally, and I loved his voice. I think of him often and frequently listen to his songs.
Dolly Parton
The worst thing about poverty is not the actual living of it, but the shame of it.
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
Until I was a teenager, I used red pokeberries for lipstick and a burnt matchstick for eyeliner. I used honeysuckle for perfume.
Dolly Parton
When people say to me less is more I reply, 'More is more'.
