I want to be like one of those little fainting goats that get scared and then just fall over. I want to go and go and then drop dead in the middle of something I'm loving to do. And if that doesn't happen, if I wind up sitting in a wheelchair, at least I'll have my high heels on.

Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Merle Haggard, Hank Williams. All of them are different styles, but those are the songs that make the times. They're the songs that last through time.

You're not going to see your dreams come true if you don't put wings, legs, arms, hands, and feet on 'em.
Dolly Parton

I’m trying my best to keep up with all this new technology and I surround myself with all these wonderful people that are in the know and kind of help me out with all that.
Dolly Parton
Image
I'm not going to limit myself just because people won't accept the fact that I can do something else.
Dolly Parton
Image
I thank God for my failures. Maybe not at the time but after some reflection. I never feel like a failure just because something I tried has failed.

My philosophy is simple: It's a down-home, common, horse-sense approach to things.
