People say I look so happy - and I say, 'That's the Botox.'

When I'm feeling a little low, I put on my favorite high heels to stand a little taller.

It's a good thing I was born a girl, otherwise I'd be a drag queen.

I don't have maids or servants, and my husband and I love waking up early and going to the 24-hour supermarket when there is nobody else there.

Everywhere I go, the kids call me 'the book lady.' The older I get, the more appreciative I seem to be of the 'book lady' title. It makes me feel more like a legitimate person, not just a singer or an entertainer. But it makes me feel like I've done something good with my life and with my success.

I'm easy to look like, so there are lots and lots of Dolly look-alikes.

Everybody has a purpose.
