If your actions create a legacy that inspires others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, then, you are an excellent leader.

In the early days, Porter Wagoner would not exactly scold me, but he's say, 'You're writing too many damn verses. You're makin' these songs too damn long.' And I'd say, 'Yeah, but I'm tellin' a story. I have a story to tell.' And he'd say, 'Well, you're not going to get it on the radio.' If I start writing a song, I'm writing it for a reason. People would say that I had to have two verses, and a chorus, and a bridge. I tried to learn that formula.

I'm a fool to keep staying, when you've made hurting me such an art.

If your actions create a legacy that inspires others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, then, you are an excellent leader.

God is in everything I do and all my work glorifies Him.

I'm almost like three people. There's me the, Dolly, the person. There's me, the star. And then there's me, the manager.
