Well I always wanted to be Dolly Parton when I was a little girl. I was obsessed with her.

I'd probably be famous now if I wasn't such a good waitress.

There's so much about Dolly Parton that every female artist should look to, whether it's reading her quotes or reading her interviews or going to one of her live shows. She's been such an amazing example to every female songwriter out there.

Dolly Parton... I love being around that woman! I worked really hard to keep up with her.

I'd sing with Roberta Flack in a taxi if you called up and said she'd be in it.

If you really want to know someone, you must see their emotions off guard. That's how I know Joan Crawford could never have been cruel to her children. I really knew her, when she was still Billie, as she liked to be called in the early days. In a relationship as close as ours, I had the chance to see her in every kind of personal situation.

My dream duet would be with Dolly Parton!

I'm more into the old-school country myself, like Dolly Parton, and I guess it wouldn't be typical, but I really love Linda Ronstadt.

Joan Crawford is a movie queen. I had never met one before. I know now what I don't want to be.
