You'll never do a whole lot unless you're brave enough to try. :)

I hope people realize that there is a brain underneath the hair and a heart underneath the boobs! ;)

I've always been misunderstood because of how I look... Don't judge me by the cover 'cause I'm a real good book! ;)

My love for you is deeper than the depth of any ocean and as faithful as the stars that grace the night... :)

If you don’t take the reigns, it’s going to stay the same. Nothin’s gonna change if you don’t change it! :)

Don’t let these false eyelashes lead you to believe that I’m as shallow as I look ‘cause I run true and deep! :)

Above the storm, the smallest prayer will still be heard.

Anyone out there on Tumblr? I just started mine today! It's filled with all kinds of goodies from my FAVORITE people - my fans!! ;) http://OfficialDollyParton.Tumblr.com

Don’t miss the premiere of 'Song By Song', a series about my life in music, and learn the stories behind “I Will Always Love You” and “9 to 5.” It airs tonight on Ovation TV! :) http://Ovtn.tv/Dolly

I'm old enough and cranky enough now that if someone tried to tell me what to do, I'd tell them where to put it. ;)

My weaknesses have always been food and men - in that order. :)

I’ve got all I need, Jesus and gravity!

We can't direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails.

I make and break my own records.

I've been writing serious songs ever since I was 10 years old. And even before that, I was makin’ up stuff.

Everyone has their own ideas of how they look best, and in my world, I always wanted to be glamorous. :)

In case you missed it... watch me and my friend 'Kermit The Frog' sing "Islands In The Stream" on Good Morning America! :) http://abcn.ws/TtUFvF

Happy Thanksgiving, ya'll! What are you thankful for this year?

I know I have a gift that God gave me, and nobody can take it away.

If I’m comfortable with me, you’ll be comfortable with me.

I’ll keep climbing, I’ll keep climbing.

I feel glamorous on the inside, so I want to look like it on the outside.

I'm very excited to be working with IGT with my very own video slot machines and five reel spinning reel games. Wanna play? Well, come on!

Yeah I flirt - I'm not blind and I'm not dead!

As peaceful as a river and as lasting as forever, you know we'll always be together, you and I! :)

I look just like the girls next door... if you happen to live next door to an amusement park. ;)

The magic is inside you - there ain’t no crystal ball! :)

My heart is absolutely broken. George Jones was my all time favorite singer and one of my favorite people in the world. My heart goes out to Nancy and the rest of his family.

Dreams are of no value if they're not equipped with wings!

The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain!

There’s a great new world out there for those who dare to claim it... A better day is on the way and only you can change it!

When someone shows you their true colors, believe them!

I won’t miss a beat. I never have. I never will.

It is always great to be nominated for anything. I remember doing The Dr. Steve Show (Official), and I was thinking at the time, 'I have enjoyed doing this as much, if not more than any show I have done in years and years.' So, I was excited to be nominated for this particular show. So thanks, and wish me luck! ;) http://bit.ly/UNEtu5

Today is Valentine's Day, and my big ol' heart is full of love for you! ;)

I live for drive-through restaurants -- don’t you just love them? ;)

Happy birthday Dolly! There's still time to send in your digital birthday greeting - Take a photo and even record a voice message! http://bit.ly/HappyBirthdayDolly

Come on down, it’s homespun fun! :)

Christmas blessings to everyone! :)

I don't know what kind of a legend I am, but if being around a long time makes you a legend, then I guess I am! :)

I just love people who are bold enough to get out there and do what they do and do it without fear.

My brand new book "Dream More" is available now! All proceeds go to benefit my Imagination Library, too! Here's how to get it: http://bit.ly/DreamMore

Without a doubt, songwriting is my greatest source of joy and the best outlet for my creativity.

Show business is a money-making joke. And I've just always liked telling jokes. :)

Trick or Treat! Put a little glamour into your Halloween with a special discount on all shirts in the official Dolly Parton merch store! http://bit.ly/DollyHalloweenStore

The way I deal with the joy and the sadness of life is to write about it.

I was told everything I know, so why not share it with others?

Gaylord makes decisions that they feel are good for their company and their stockholders, and I have to make decisions based on what is best for me and the Dollywood Company. Governor Haslam, Mayor Dean, and all the folks in government have been great to work with. I really appreciate their support through this process. 

I think everyone knows I love Nashville, and I hope the work we've already done will spark more family entertainment in Nashville.

Hone your skills, sharpen your wits, write those songs, and learn to play.
