More quotes by Dolly Parton
I don't think I'm supposed to boss other people around just because I'm a so-called celebrity or star. I hate that when people act that way. No one deserves it. I've seen it happen. I don't call those people out - they know who they are. Some enjoy that reputation.
Dolly Parton
I always loved books. I don't remember learning to read, it was just something I always did. I was hungry for knowledge, I guess, and information I was a curious kid. I still am.
Dolly Parton
That's the great thing about a sense of humor and a sex drive, you can't wait to share it with everybody else.
Dolly Parton
I often joke that 100 years from now I hope people are saying, 'Dang, she looks good for her age!'
Dolly Parton
We're phonies if we're not exactly who we are.
Dolly Parton
I love everybody. My heart's open to everybody.
Dolly Parton
Life is a song to me.
Dolly Parton
Writing's just as natural to me as getting up and cooking breakfast.
Dolly Parton
Stop this attitude that older people ain't any good anymore! We're as good as we ever were - if we ever were any good.
Dolly Parton
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
To me it's a two-way street. They're good to me, and I'm good to them. It's a natural thing for me to love people, and I think people sense it. ... I am secure with the kind of person I am. I don't feel like I'm better than anyone, but I'm just as good as anyone.
Dolly Parton
I think everyone should be with who they love.
Dolly Parton
We cannot direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails.
Dolly Parton
I will not play just an evil part. In fact, I got offered $7 million several years ago to play the part that Faye Dunaway played in 'Supergirl.' I was kind of insulted. I was impressed with the money, but I said, 'Why are you asking me to play an evil witch? Do I come across as an evil witch to you?'
Dolly Parton
I didn't know any gay people in my childhood.
Dolly Parton
We get along real well actually [with my husband Karl Tomas Din]. We give each other space and he's not in the business and he doesn't want to be. I'm interested in his world, he's interested in mine, but we have our own things that we do together.
Dolly Parton
I always think of myself as a working girl.
Dolly Parton
I'm just a friendly person that runs in my family.
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
Truth is, I wouldn't know a gigabyte from a snakebite.
Dolly Parton
