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

Dolly Parton

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
Those people who wake up and they're just beautiful, they're just born that way. Well that ain't me. I gotta work for everything I've got.
