More quotes by Dolly Parton
I've never been more moved by a voice than I have been by Roy Orbison. I loved him personally, and I loved his voice. I think of him often and frequently listen to his songs.
Dolly Parton

Dolly Parton
Plastic surgeons are always making mountains out of molehills.
Dolly Parton
My favorite movies of all times is 'Doctor Zhivago,' and I love 'Gone With the Wind.' I'd love to play some Southern belle or something where I owned a plantation.
Dolly Parton
I describe my look as a blend of mother goose, cinderella, and the local hooker!
Dolly Parton
Working nine to five, what way to earn a living. Barely getting by... It's all taking and no giving. They use just your mind and they never give you credit. It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it!
Dolly Parton

Dolly Parton
I still believe in Santa, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy and true love. Don't even try to tell me different.
Dolly Parton
I write a little something every day, even though I don't write a song [every day]. Everything inspires me. I'll come up with a line, or somebody will say something that will trigger something.
Dolly Parton
Thanks to Botox and fillers, as well as the work that I've already had, my face pretty much maintains itself.
Dolly Parton
When I'm inspired, I get excited because I can't wait to see what I'll come up with next.
Dolly Parton
I was probably 7 years old when I started playing the guitar and writing some serious songs.
Dolly Parton
If you can read, you can find books on anything you want. You can self-educate even if you can't afford to go to school.
Dolly Parton
'9 to 5,' that little song, that little story, just won't ever end. Just like 'I Will Always Love You,' it just keeps comin' back, popping up its head in one way or another.
Dolly Parton
I am a tender-hearted person, and I feel everything to the ninth degree.
Dolly Parton
God made me the way that I am and it’s my business to be true to that.
Dolly Parton
I do remember how it was to be poor. I do remember that in my early years, we had to grow and raise all of our food, even our animals. And I remember in my early life, we didn't even have electricity. So it was very, very hard times then.
Dolly Parton
