And they're smarter than most of us that are out there showing our asses. — Dolly Parton

I feel like I just started. — Dolly Parton

Lord, I've got enough problems of my own to pass judgment on somebody else. — Dolly Parton

I did for awhile, but I realize that I am everybody's mother. — Dolly Parton
