Mine is a jealous heart, imagines things that never are.

I always love working with children. I never had children of my own. God has his purposes. God didn't let me have children so everybody's children could be mine. That's kind of how I'm looking at it.

If you can read, you can find books on anything you want. You can self-educate even if you can't afford to go to school.

I love to flirt, and I've never met a man I didn't like.

When I got somethin' to say, I'll say it.

People make jokes about my bosoms, why don't they look underneath the breasts at the heart? It's obvious I've got big ones and if people want to assume they're not mine, then let them.

I would honestly say that with all the awards and all the other things that I've done in my life, Dollywood is one of the greatest dreams that I've ever had come true - I am so proud of that I can't even begin to tell you, Dollywood is real special to me.
