I come from a family of 12, so I kind of got a little lost as a child.

Sometimes I start with a great title or idea, sometimes a great melody will run through my mind; but the higher percentage of the time, the words and music pretty much come at the same time.

I'm very upfront and very honest. I don't let a bunch of stuff fester and boil over.

God knows when the end of time will come, not some fanatic... The world will end someday, but the end of the world and the end of time are two different things.

I wouldn't wanna go out not looking like the Dolly people have come to know, because I've come to know her that way, too.

The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.

I was the first woman to burn my bra - it took the fire department four days to put it out.
