More quotes by Dolly Parton
My husband calls me 'catfish.' He says I'm all mouth and no brains.
Dolly Parton
The only way I'd be caught without makeup is if my radio fell in the bathtub while I was taking a bath and electrocuted me and I was in between makeup at home. I hope my husband would slap a little lipstick on me before he took me to the morgue.
Dolly Parton
I'll never harden my heart but I've toughened the muscles around it.
Dolly Parton
Wouldn't it be something if we could have things we love in abudance without their losing that special attraction the want of them held for us.
Dolly Parton
I will never retire unless I have to.
Dolly Parton
When the new country came out ten to 15 years ago, people my age were almost too old. But it never stopped me. I never stopped writing. I never stopped recording.
Dolly Parton
I'm gonna be making records anyway, even if I had to sell 'em out of the trunk of my car. I'm that kind of musician and singer.
Dolly Parton
I didn't know any gay people in my childhood.
Dolly Parton
I always love working with children. I never had children of my own. God has his purposes. God didn't let me have children so everybody's children could be mine. That's kind of how I'm looking at it.
Dolly Parton
I'm a fool to keep staying, when you've made hurting me such an art.
Dolly Parton
I have little feet because nothing grows in the shade.
Dolly Parton
I thank God for my failures. Maybe not at the time but after some reflection. I never feel like a failure just because something I tried has failed.
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
A gypsy told me I was going to do great things. I was going to make all kinds of money.
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 enjoy the way I look, but it's a joke.
Dolly Parton
I've copyrighted 3,000 songs.
Dolly Parton
I love everybody. My heart's open to everybody.
Dolly Parton
'9 to 5 the Musical' is perfect for anyone that's ever wanted to string up their boss, which is almost all of us.
Dolly Parton
I'll just wait right here for you cause I know your new love won't last. I wound easy, but I heal fast.
Dolly Parton
