Goodbye- please don't cry/we both know that I'm not what you need. But I will always love you.

Johnny Cash has only passed into the greater light. He will only become more important in this industry as time goes by.

Its hard to be a diamond in a rhinestone world.

Our own freewill, to choose the paths we take, no greater deed could ever be done than for another's sake.

It was never a marketing tool. People say that, but I dress this way for the same reasons I did when I first started doing it. It still comes from a serious place inside of me. I get up in the morning, and I think I just look better a certain way I do my makeup. I want to shine, I want to glitter. I'm not getting up thinking, "Oh, this'll get 'em." And I'm not doing it to make a statement. I'm just doing it to look like Dolly - the Dolly that I know and the Dolly that you know.

I know that I always wanted things. I was always proud of my people, proud of my home, but I always wanted more. I think most people do.

Dream more, learn more, care more, and be more.
