617
I still have my first paycheck. It was just, I think, a dollar or two that I got when I started as a songwriter with BMI, and I had some songs there that I had through the company, and in the mail I got this big old check for, like, a dollar and a half or something. Somebody had recorded one of my songs.
618

708
If I'd married someone in show business, there'd be too much competition.
709
I was approached about having my own network many, many years ago. There were some people who wanted to start up a network, and I didn't want to get that involved in the business aspect of it.

I do believe that any successful business starts from the top and works its way down.
711
I always think of myself as a working girl.
712

714
I can write a song in about an hour if it's a simple country song.
715

716
I do have a lot of gays in my family now, but some will never come out.
717
I always ask God to work through me and let me be a light of some kind and help in this world, so I always pray for that, and I always want to do good.
718
My first phone was two tin cans tied together with string, and it worked pretty good.
719
I never thought, in my lifetime, that you'd be able to watch movies, read books and listen to music from a phone, but I guess the technology of tomorrow is here today.
720
That little Miley Cyrus... she's like a little Elvis. The kids love her because she's Hannah Montana, but what people don't realize about her is she is such a fantastic singer and songwriter. She writes songs like she's 40 years old!
721
People are always asking me in interviews, 'What do you think of foreign affairs?' I just say, 'I've had a few.'
722
When I started the Imagination Library in my hometown, I never dreamed that one day we would be helping Scottish kids. Imagination
723
No one is ever successful at everything that they do.
724
God has his plans and his reasons. Sometimes we are supposed to go through things so that we learn lessons.
725
I always thought that if I made it big or got successful at what I had started out to do, that I wanted to come back to my part of the country and do something great, something that would bring a lot of jobs into this area.
726
I think people take me as seriously as I want them to. They take me as seriously as I take myself - let's put it that way.
801
I'm very secure about my talents and about who I am.
802
I'm comfortable in my own skin, no matter how far it's stretched. Ha ha.
803
There's a scripture that says, 'A merry heart doeth good like medicine.' I think that's true, too.
804
I'll never graduate from collagen.
805
People are looking for something a little more stable; people are feeling like they need to get closer to God.
806
No one could have been nicer, classier nor better looking than Dick Clark. I've had a crush on him since I was a teenager.
807
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.
808
'9 to 5,' that little song, that little story, just won't ever end. Just like 'I Will Always Love You,' it just keeps comin' back, popping up its head in one way or another.
809
Of course, 'I Will Always Love You' is the biggest song so far in my career. I'm famous for several, but that one has been recorded by more people and made me more money, I think, than all of them. But that song did come from a true and deep place in my heart. Famous
810
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.
811
They say somebody's 'street smart.' I feel like, if I got intelligence, it's just a country smart. Intelligence

817
When I got somethin' to say, I'll say it.
818
When I get down, I don't waller around for long.
819
I always wanted to be loved.
820
I used to sing songs and write with my uncle, Bill Owens.
821
It took me years to eat a lot of shellfish. I was probably 20 years old before I had even seen a shrimp cocktail. I like oysters, but fried.
822
I love Indian, Italian and Mexican food. And if it's a romantic type of thing, I like a good French restaurant. Romantic
823
I don't have time to stand around and listen to an 11-minute song.
824
I'm a singer, a writer and an actress - when I find something that I feel good enough about doing.
825
Never leave a rhinestone unturned.
826
I really learned to sing in church, I think, really with emotion.
901
My lips, I've used collagen. I line my lips with collagen.

All of my brothers and sisters are very talented. They all sang all right.

I love being active.
908
I know it's corny - but I love 'Jingle Bells!'
909
I don't think I'm supposed to boss other people around just because I'm a so-called celebrity or star. I hate that when people act that way. No one deserves it. I've seen it happen. I don't call those people out - they know who they are. Some enjoy that reputation.
910
I walk tall; I got a tall attitude. Attitude
911
Being brought up very religious, I have a fear of people that look to idol gods.
912
There are certainly a lot of things that still need to change when it comes to women in the workforce.
913
I'm trying my best to keep up with all this new technology, and I surround myself with all these wonderful people that are in the know and kind of help me out with all that.
914
'Jolene' has been very popular all of these years, even overseas.
915
I think that I'm perfect.
916
I think that I know the value of a dollar.
917
I'm almost like three people. There's me the, Dolly, the person. There's me, the star. And then there's me, the manager.
918
My grandpa was a preacher.
919
I was the first woman to burn my bra - it took the fire department four days to put it out.
920
I still close my eyes and go home - I can always draw from that.
921
I was probably 7 years old when I started playing the guitar and writing some serious songs.
922
I think every entertainer's had nights when things go wrong. I mean you can't remember everything all the time, and especially if you're having hard times personally, things going on that you - you know, and then people make it worse. And that makes you feel worse.
923
