My favorite movies of all times is 'Doctor Zhivago,' and I love 'Gone With the Wind.' I'd love to play some Southern belle or something where I owned a plantation.

I love the accomplishments and the awards that I've received through the years. But I've always worked more for the rewards than the awards. I've always counted my blessings before I've counted my money. I'm glad that new dreams come to me everyday.

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.

When I started the Imagination Library in my hometown, I never dreamed that one day we would be helping Scottish kids.

I just kind of wake up with a new idea and new dreams every day, and I follow that dream, as they say.

I was always a junk food person, still am.

We're not all perfect. People always say to me: "Oh you seem happy all the time." But I'm not happy all the time. I'm a human being. I'm very sensitive. I hurt like anybody else. But I do try my best to have a good attitude and I set about tryin' to take care of myself knowing I'm not going to be exactly right, so I just try to see what I can do to improve every single day.
