Sometimes I start with a great title or idea, sometimes a great melody will run through my mind but the higher percentage of the time, the words and music pretty much come at the same time.

More quotes by Dolly Parton
I think everyone should be with who they love.
Dolly Parton
I am amazed at the response of my being on the show. Everywhere I go, every young person points at me and says Hi, Aunt Dolly. Or Are you Aunt Dolly? I love doing the show and I love Miley and Billy Ray [Cyrus]. I am proud to be her honorary Godmother.
Dolly Parton
If you're feeling low, don't despair. The sun has a sinking spell every night, but it comes back up every morning.
Dolly Parton
I'm not offended by all the dumb blonde jokes because I know I'm not dumb... and I also know that I'm not blonde.
Dolly Parton
Being brought up very religious, I have a fear of people that look to idol gods. But we are idols and we're all gods, so to speak, and I think that celebrities should acknowledge their responsibility, because we are in a position to help.
Dolly Parton
The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain. When I'm inspired, I get excited because I can't wait to see what I'll come up with next. Find out who you are and do it on purpose.
Dolly Parton
I've always kinda been a little outcast myself, a little oddball, doin' my thing, my own way. And it's been hard for me to, to be accepted, certainly in the early years of my life.
Dolly Parton
I have been asked to pose for Penthouse on my hundredth birthday. Everybody is going to be sorry.
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
I've used my femininity and my sexuality as a weapon and a tool... but that's just natural.
Dolly Parton
I hope you're never happy with anybody but me, and every face you look into, I hope you're haunted by me. Yes, I'm possessive and jealous, at least I speak honestly.
Dolly Parton
You can't really make people be any different than what they are.
Dolly Parton
I learned early on that I could get a lot of attention by singing and writing little songs, so it was like throwing nuts to a monkey... I just couldn't get enough.
Dolly Parton
I can be accused of trying to be commercial sometimes.
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
It's great at this stage in my life to still be in the running, that people appreciate you.
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
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.
Dolly Parton
I always ask God to work through me and let me be a light of some kind and help in this world, so I always pray for that, and I always want to do good.
Dolly Parton
I'll oil wells love you. I'll oil wells care. I'll oil wells need you. I want you oil wells dear.
Dolly Parton
