More quotes by Dolly Parton
The guitar is my favorite and the one, I guess, I'm best at. But I play enough of the different instruments to be able to write with them and to, hopefully, to make myself look impressive on stage.
Dolly Parton
Of course, 'I Will Always Love You' is the biggest song so far in my career. I'm famous for several, but that one has been recorded by more people and made me more money, I think, than all of them. But that song did come from a true and deep place in my heart.
Dolly Parton
I'm always amazed by the people who work on stage who sing night after night, day after day, week in week out.
Dolly Parton
I think being poor has been good for me. I saw how my mom and dad struggled, and how they could stretch a dollar farther than you could begin to imagine.
Dolly Parton
I never, ever get involved in politics. With politics you are not allowed to be honest. I don't have time to deal with that. I would rather work with kids.
Dolly Parton
Don't get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life.
Dolly Parton
When you're 40, you can't ride the fence anymore. You gotta make definite decisions about your life.
Dolly Parton
I never tried quitting, and I never quit trying.
Dolly Parton
A tree reaches below the surface to gather strength for stargazing.
Dolly Parton
I don't trust anyone who does their own hair. I don't think it's natural.
Dolly Parton
Is forever longer than always?
Dolly Parton
I have little feet because nothing grows in the shade.
Dolly Parton
My philosophy is simple: It's a down-home, common, horse-sense approach to things.
Dolly Parton
I'm in the public eye, so I don't care who knows what I get done. If I see something sagging, dragging, or bagging, I get it sucked, tucked, or plucked.
Dolly Parton
It's a good thing I was born a girl, otherwise I'd be a drag queen.
Dolly Parton
I embrace everybody for who and what they are.
Dolly Parton
Some of my dreams are so big they would scare you.
Dolly Parton
Everywhere I go, the kids call me 'the book lady.' The older I get, the more appreciative I seem to be of the 'book lady' title. It makes me feel more like a legitimate person, not just a singer or an entertainer. But it makes me feel like I've done something good with my life and with my success.
Dolly Parton
I have a tendency to be awfully big-hearted and it's very hard for me to say no, even when I need to.
Dolly Parton
A great smile is a wonderful asset, but a good heart is pure gold.
Dolly Parton
