Dolly Parton
I try to see the good in everybody, and I don't care who people are as long as they're themselves, whatever that is.
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

Dolly Parton
