Dolly Parton quotes about
I think that I'm perfect.
My songs are like my children - I expect them to support me when I'm old.
I can't tell anybody else how to run their life or their business, but I really believe I've got a good bead on myself.
Every day I pray about all I do.
I enjoy the way I look, but it's a joke.
People always ask me if they're mine. Yes, they are... all bought and paid for.
Until I was a teenager, I used red pokeberries for lipstick and a burnt matchstick for eyeliner. I used honeysuckle for perfume.
I'm no angel if that's what you thought you found. I was just the victim of a man that let me down.
That traveling man was a two time lover, he took my love, then he took my mother.
Daddy worked for God, but asked for no pay. For he believed that God provides a way.
Jump out of bed and I stumble to the kitchen, pour myself a cup of ambition and yawn and stretch and try to come alive.
They let you dream just to watch them shatter, you're just a step on the boss man's ladder.
God tells us not to judge one another, no matter what anyone's sexual preferences are or if they're black, brown or purple.
I hope to die right in the middle of a song and right on the stage doing what I love to do. I hope to be about 120 when that happens.
