More quotes by Dolly Parton
Poor little Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan... If those little girls slept with as many men as they say in the tabloids, why their little butts would have more fingerprints than the FBI! I kinda feel sorry for them. We should give those two a break.
Dolly Parton
Wouldn't it be something if we could have things we love in abudance without their losing that special attraction the want of them held for us.
Dolly Parton
I couldn't have children, I tried to for years. I've never been pregnant in my life. When I was a girl and fooling around I was scared to death I'd get pregnant, and then when I got married and wanted to have children I couldn't have any. But I don't miss it. I did for awhile, but I realize that I am everybody's mother.
Dolly Parton
I haven't stopped working since I was 10.

Dolly Parton
I have surrounded myself with very smart people.
Dolly Parton
A lot of people have said I'd have probably done better in my career if I hadn't looked so cheap and gaudy. But I dress to be comfortable for me, and you shouldn't be blamed because you want to look pretty.
Dolly Parton
I don't make people bend over backwards, and I don't like that in people. I am definitely no diva.
Dolly Parton
I stay close to my roots and my family. I never want to forget any part of it. I'm still just a hillbilly at heart, thus a Backwoods Barbie.
Dolly Parton
A lot of dreams can turn to nightmares... if you don't really work them.
Dolly Parton
I'm just a simple country girl.
Dolly Parton
One is only poor, only if they choose to be.
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
Don't get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life.
Dolly Parton
I'll bring my grits when I travel, because I get so hungry on the road.
Dolly Parton
People like bluegrass. It's had a following amongst a lot of hip and young people. A lot of college kids like bluegrass.
