I don't think you ever really know what all you're doing, so you have to act on faith. ”

Writing's just as natural to me as getting up and cooking breakfast. ”

I've used my femininity and my sexuality as a weapon and a tool... but that's just natural. ”

People don't realize that we, we meaning people in show business, have the same problems as everyone else. Money doesn't change that. Fame doesn't change that. Sometimes that brings on more problems. You know, it's just a different kind of problems. ”

There are certainly a lot of things that still need to change when it comes to women in the workforce. ”

I'm no natural beauty. If I'm gonna have any looks at all, I'm gonna have to create them. ”

My first job was singing on the Cas Walker radio show in Knoxville, Tennessee. I was about 10 years old, and I thought it was big time. ”

I wear wigs all the time on shows, and every day when I'm in public, at Dollywood. People say, 'How many wigs do you have?' And I say, 'Well, at least 365 because I wear at least one a day.' ”

God knows when the end of time will come, not some fanatic... The world will end someday, but the end of the world and the end of time are two different things. ”

Tell me I have to be somewhere, and I'll be there 20 minutes early and stay there longer than anybody else. You hold up a lot of people if you're not on time. ”
