After you reach a certain age, they think you’re over. Well, I will never be over. I’ll be making records if I have to sell them out of the trunk of my car. I’ve done that in my past, and I’d do it again.

My mama never wore a pair of pants when I was growing up, and now that's all she wears. It was so funny for me when I first started seeing Mama wear pants. It was like it wasn't Mama. Now I've bought her many a pantsuit because she just lives in them.

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.

My husband said 'show me your boobs' and I had to pull up my skirt... so it was time to get them done!

I am a tender-hearted person, and I feel everything to the ninth degree.

I would never stoop so low as to be fashionable.

I know some of the best Dolly Parton jokes. I made 'em up myself.
