More quotes by Dolly Parton
Well, my smile's pretty hard to miss, considering I'm a gal who likes her lipstick-the redder the better.
Dolly Parton
If you talk bad about country music, it's like saying bad things about my momma. Them's fightin' words.
Dolly Parton
Some people say that less is more. But I think more is more.
Dolly Parton
I think everyone should be with who they love. I don't want to be controversial or stir up a bunch of trouble but people are going to love who they are going to love. I think gay couples should be allowed to marry. They should suffer just like us heterosexuals. Ha ha ha!
Dolly Parton
Love is only as strong as your weakest moment.
Dolly Parton
I think people take me as seriously as I want them to. They take me as seriously as I take myself - let's put it that way.
Dolly Parton
If there's something bothering me in the business end of things with people I work with, I just say it right out.
Dolly Parton
I've never had a divorce, but I've seen so many of my friends, my sister, my family go through that stuff, so I try to write for the people that can't write about it. I take on their sorrow, so I'm able to kind of express it, or their joy.
Dolly Parton
I don't like to get involved in things that I am not familiar with. I'm kind of a hands-on type of person.
Dolly Parton
Got those moods a swinging, tears a slinging, nothing fits me, when it hits me, ranting, raving, misbehaving, PMS blues.
Dolly Parton
I think every entertainer's had nights when things go wrong. I mean you can't remember everything all the time, and especially if you're having hard times personally, things going on that you - you know, and then people make it worse. And that makes you feel worse.
Dolly Parton
Time marches on and sooner or later you realize it is marching across your face.
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 think [music and acting], they are connected, all that stuff. It's your emotional self, is pretty much how you do it, I think, from whatever place you do it, whether you're acting or you're singing.
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
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 know it's corny - but I love 'Jingle Bells!'
Dolly Parton
I'm very open with my business partners, just like I am with my husband.
Dolly Parton
We just seem to have lost all our morals and principles and values these days.
Dolly Parton
I have tennis shoes with little rhinestones that I slip on if I exercise. But I always wear heels, even around the house. I'm such a short little thing, I can't reach my kitchen cabinets.
Dolly Parton
