More quotes by Dolly Parton
A baby, a real live baby was the craziest thing a fan has sent. Someone left a baby on our front doorstep with a note that they wanted us to raise it. Of course, we contacted the authorities and they took care of the baby.
Dolly Parton
God and I have a great relationship but we both see other people.
Dolly Parton
If I could get their attention long enough, I felt they would see beneath the boobs and find the heart, and that they would see beneath the wig and find the brains. I think one big part of whatever appeal I possess is the fact that I look totally one way and that I am totally another. I look artificial, but I'm not.
Dolly Parton
I try to be good at it, whatever part I'm playing - even in my daily life or when the spotlight hits me on the stage to perform - I gotta be alive every second in this world. With or without the applause!
Dolly Parton
I describe my look as a blend of mother goose, cinderella, and the local hooker!
Dolly Parton
I've always wanted to be a star. I've always wanted money and wanted to travel. So I knew there was a price to pay for that.
Dolly Parton

Dolly Parton
You'll never do a whole lot unless you're brave enough to try.
Dolly Parton
One of the things I'm real proud of is I just made a deal with 20th Century Fox, and I've got my own production company now. I'm developing some television and movies for other people because I have a lot of fresh new ideas. To write is what I love the most.
Dolly Parton
A gypsy told me I was going to do great things. I was going to make all kinds of money.
Dolly Parton
I don't trust anyone who does their own hair. I don't think it's natural.
Dolly Parton
I do think there's gonna always be a group of country people that are always going to love the old traditional sound.
Dolly Parton
We give scholarships to high school kids and a new library of books to every preschool child in the county where I was born. I didn't have books at home so I did all my reading at school. I love books and I believe that helping kids to read gives them a great start in life.
Dolly Parton
So many of my relatives didn't get a chance to go to school, and my own Daddy couldn't read or write.
Dolly Parton
I always loved books. I don't remember learning to read, it was just something I always did. I was hungry for knowledge, I guess, and information I was a curious kid. I still am.
Dolly Parton
I think so many people live their whole life in fear and doubt and shame.
Dolly Parton
God has his plans and his reasons. Sometimes we are supposed to go through things so that we learn lessons.
Dolly Parton
My aunt in Knoxville would bring newspapers up, which we used for toilet paper. Before we used it, we'd look at the pictures.
