More quotes by Dolly Parton
I've tried different things through the years to get some play on mainstream. I'll try to tailor-make it.
Dolly Parton
Music lives in me. Life is a song to me. I have the gift of rhyme, and I'm always trying to write and rhyme. Music is just natural everyday occurrence with me.

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
After Momma gave birth to twelve of us kids, we put her up on a pedestal. It was mostly to keep Daddy away from her.
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 like to buy clothes that are two sizes too small and then take them in a little.
Dolly Parton
My songs are the door to every dream I've ever had and every success I've ever achieved.
Dolly Parton
My grandpa was a preacher.
Dolly Parton
I'm in showbiz. I look at my boobs like they're show horses or show dogs. You've got to keep them groomed.
Dolly Parton
I am a seeker, a poor, sinful creature, there is no weaker than I.
Dolly Parton
