More quotes by Dolly Parton
We just seem to have lost all our morals and principles and values these days.
Dolly Parton
No, I can't do rap music...
Dolly Parton
Home is anywhere I hang my hair
Dolly Parton
I don't know that I'm beautiful or glamorous. I'm a pretty artificial looking person. I sure am flattered when people think I'm beautiful, but I think I'm leaning towards more cartoonish than beautiful. But I'm comfortable with who I am. And since I wasn't born as a natural beauty, I just make the most of what I've got.
Dolly Parton
I think I became more productive through not having children. I never really had the desire to have them. My husband didn't want them either, so it worked out well.
Dolly Parton
I've enjoyed all the parts of my career.
Dolly Parton
I wake up with new dreams every day...more I can do to channel that into things that I love to create is healthier for me and probably for everybody around me.
Dolly Parton
I don't mind being it [age 60], I just don't like saying it.
Dolly Parton
Many of my friends are gay, male and female. I don't judge people. I don't care what people do in their bedrooms and people shouldn't care what I do in mine.
Dolly Parton
I usually eat breakfast twice. I'm usually up at 3 a.m. - do my spiritual work, my affirmations, a little bit of songwriting, get my daily work in order, and by that time I've worked up a bigger appetite.
Dolly Parton
I've always believed in my talent. And I've always had more guts than talent.
Dolly Parton
I try to be good at it, whatever part I'm playing - even in my daily life or when the spotlight hits me on the stage to perform - I gotta be alive every second in this world. With or without the applause!
Dolly Parton
I love thinking, I love coming up with great ideas. I just get excited. Sometimes if I get a big idea, I'm just like a kid, like I've found a new toy.
Dolly Parton
A tree reaches below the surface to gather strength for stargazing.
Dolly Parton
Living in America and, of course, just being women in general, we've got more strength than we think we do.
Dolly Parton
No one is ever successful at everything that they do.
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 haven't stopped working since I was 10.
Dolly Parton
I have two favorite colors - white and yellow. White makes me feel light and airy. Yellow makes me happy.
Dolly Parton
Most country songs, certainly all the stuff I've written, are stories driven by characters.
