多莉·帕顿深谙语言之道——将词句谱入朗朗上口的旋律,用她的机智逗人发笑。
这位深受喜爱的明星于本周二辞世,享年80岁,人们将铭记她的善良、才华与幽默。
帕顿从不羞于自嘲,或是用俏皮的一句话点评自己标志性的造型,比如:“要维持这种接地气的造型可要花不少钱。”
但除了玩笑之外,这些年来她也分享过许多人生智慧与处世哲理。以下是我们从哥伦比亚广播公司新闻对帕顿的采访中精选的最令人难忘、最鼓舞人心的语录:
关于她的名气
当被问及如何看待众多粉丝对她的喜爱与尊重时,她在2022年接受哥伦比亚广播公司新闻记者盖尔·金采访时表示:“这是一种荣耀,但有时也会让我害怕到骨子里。”
“我总说,我并没有那么了不起,有时候甚至连自己都没弄明白自己,”她开玩笑道。“但能陪伴大家这么久,让人们觉得他们了解我,并且渐渐接纳了我,这让我感到开心。如今我年纪大了,他们更把我当成了一位大姐或是贴心的姑姑,能扮演好这个角色,我很高兴。”
关于她的外形
帕顿常说,她的造型灵感来自于自己成长过程中见过的“镇上最惹眼的姑娘”。
“她涂着彩妆、留着红指甲、踩着红色高跟鞋,穿着紧身衣。我当时就觉得她是我见过的最美的人,”帕顿在2016年说道。“旁人都说‘哦,她不过是个风尘女子’,但我当时心想,‘等我长大了,就要活成她那样’。”
谈到时尚品味,帕顿在2023年接受哥伦比亚广播公司新闻主持人诺拉·奥唐奈采访时表示,她只穿自己喜欢的衣服。
“我不在乎跟风潮流,”她说。“我从来都不是那种会跟着别人的脚步走的人……我有自己的个性,对自己是谁、想呈现什么样的形象都有自己的想法。当人们说我是时尚偶像时,我笑到不行,因为我从来没想过会变成这样。”
关于她的自信
“我常说,这么多年来不管我把自己‘折腾’成什么样,我都能坦然接纳真实的自己,”她对奥唐奈说道。“但我认为,坦然接受自己本身非常重要,因为我不知道该如何扮演别人,也不想成为别人。”
关于歌曲创作
“我不是什么天才,这不过是流淌在我血液里的天赋罢了,”帕顿在谈到自己的创作时对奥唐奈说。“我有押韵的天赋……我常开玩笑说:‘我至少写了三千首歌,其中只有三首算得上精品。’这话基本属实。”
她常说,创作歌曲对她而言是与生俱来的本能。
“哪怕我想停,也停不下来写歌,”她说。
关于《我将永远爱你》
如果有人误以为《我将永远爱你》是惠特妮·休斯顿的作品,帕顿说她并不会生气。
“我会说‘你说得没错’,”她在2016年说道。“也有人会纠正说‘不,这是多莉·帕顿的歌’,我就说‘听着,她可以拿署名权,我只要版税就行’。感谢上帝,我靠着惠特妮的版本赚了不少钱。”
关于她的精神信仰
“我践行我的信仰,你懂的,这也是最主要的修行方式。你只需活出信仰,成为那样的人,”她在2023年说道。“天国就在你心中,就在你的内心深处,你可以从中汲取智慧,不管你称之为上帝、更高的智慧或是更高的觉知。总有比你更强大的存在。我觉得你只需要接纳它、践行它。你可以把这一点运用到任何事情上。我不认为你必须成为圣人,也不必刻板到连玩乐都不行。你知道的,这一切都关乎你内心的初衷。”
关于从未生育
帕顿在2019年接受哥伦比亚广播公司新闻记者托尼·多库皮尔采访时表示,她并不后悔没有孩子。
“这不是命中注定的事。我不后悔,从来没有后悔过,”她说。“说穿了,这是一种选择。所以你做出选择,也要做出牺牲,而我从未回头观望。我很早就知道,我会在这条路上走下去,直到上帝让我停下。如今我仍在前行,而他还没让我停下的意思。”
关于保持神秘感
“我会把人们需要知道的事情都讲出来,我说的话都是真诚的。只是我不会把自己知道的所有事都说出来。如果你没问到那一点,我就不会主动说。我得留点私人空间给自己,”她在2023年说道。
关于永远在追梦
“我永远不知道接下来会发生什么。我总说,我每天醒来都带着新的梦想,我身边的工作人员就会说‘是啊,我知道,你的梦想快要把我们榨干了’,”她在2023年开玩笑道。“我永远在追梦,永远在行动。我希望能一直这样,直到生命尽头。”
关于她的遗产
“我希望人们能把我当成一个正派的人,”帕顿在2024年接受哥伦比亚广播公司新闻记者安东尼·梅森采访时说道。“当你们在我离开后想起我时,我希望你们能微笑,心想‘哦,她这个人挺有趣的’,或是‘哦,她很有幽默感,就算难过的时候,也会用开玩笑的方式排解’。”
她说,她希望被人视作“一个普通人”。
“我总说,我是看起来光鲜亮丽的工作狂,”她说。“我只希望能留下一些有价值的东西,供后人欣赏和汲取力量。”
Dolly Parton quotes that show her honesty, humor and wisdom: “I’m always dreaming”
August 26, 2026 / 1:41 PM EDT / CBS News
Dolly Parton had a way with words — rhyming them in catchy melodies and making people laugh with her wit.
The beloved star is being remembered for her kindness, talent and humor following her death at the age of 80 on Tuesday.
Parton wasn’t shy about making jokes about herself or commenting on her signature look with quick one-liners, like, “It costs a lot to look this cheap.”
But aside from the jokes, she shared wisdom and life lessons over the years. Here are some of the most memorable and inspiring quotes from CBS News interviews with Parton:
On her fame
Asked how she feels about the love and respect she has from so many people, she told CBS News’ Gayle King in 2022, “It’s an honor, but it scares me to death sometimes.”
“I’m always saying, I’m not all that, I’m even not all there sometimes,” she joked. “But it makes me feel good that I’ve been around long enough for people to feel like they know me and they’ve just kind of accepted me, and now that I’m older, they just kind of think of me as like an older sister or a favorite aunt and I’m glad to play that role.”
On her appearance
Parton often said she patterned her look after what she described as “the town tramp” she saw growing up.
“She wore the makeup, red nails, red high heels, tight clothes. I just thought she was the prettiest thing I’d ever seen,” Parton said in 2016. “And people say, ‘Oh, she ain’t nothing but trash,’ but in my mind, I thought, ‘That’s what I’m going to be when I grow up.’”
When it came to fashion, Parton told CBS News’ Norah O’Donnell in 2023 that she just wore what she liked.
“I don’t care about following fashion,” she said. “I’ve never been one to follow what other people are doing. … I just had my own personality, my own thought of who I was and how I wanted to look. I laugh out loud when people say I’m a fashion icon ’cause I never intended for that to happen.”
On her confidence
“I often say I’m comfortable in my own skin no matter how far I’ve stretched it as the years go by,” she told O’Donnell. “But I think there’s a lot to be said about being comfortable with who you are ’cause I don’t know how to be anybody else. I don’t want to be anybody else.”
On songwriting
“I’m not a genius. That just runs in my blood,” Parton told O’Donnell about her songwriting. “I have a gift of rhyme. … I always, to make a joke, I said, ‘I’ve got at least 3,000 songs and three good ones.’ That’s pretty much true.”
She often said songwriting was natural for her.
“I couldn’t stop writing songs if I wanted to,” she said.
On “I Will Always Love You”
If people mistakenly thought “I Will Always Love You” was Whitney Houston’s song, Parton said she doesn’t take offense.
“I say, ‘You got that right,’” she said in 2016. “And other people they kind of say, ‘No, that’s Dolly Parton’s song.’ I said, ‘Look, she can have the credit. I just want the cash.’ And I made plenty of it all off of Whitney, thank God.”
On her spirituality
“I live my spirituality, you know, that’s how you practice it mostly. You just live it and be it,” she said in 2023. “The kingdom of heaven is inside. It’s right inside of you and you can draw from that, that wisdom, whether you call it God or higher wisdom or a higher knowing. There’s something bigger than you. I just think you just need to claim it and live it. And you can apply that to whatever you do. I don’t think you have to be a saint. I don’t think you have to be so strict that you can’t have fun. You know, it’s all about the intent of your heart.”
On never having children
Parton told CBS News’ Tony Dokoupil in 2019 she didn’t regret not having children.
“It wasn’t meant to be. And I don’t regret it. I never regretted it,” she said. “I mean, it was a choice. So, you make your choices, you make your sacrifices, and I never looked back. I knew early on that I was going to walk that road ’til God told me to stop. And I’m still walking it, and He ain’t said nothing to me about quitting yet.”
On being mysterious
“I tell everything I feel that the people need to know and I’m honest in what I say. I just don’t always tell everything I know. If you didn’t think to ask it, I ain’t going to volunteer it. I have to save some for me,” she said in 2023.
On always dreaming
“I never know what’s next. I always say that I wake up with new dreams every day and the people that work around me say, ‘Yeah, I know, your dreams are about to kill us,’” she joked in 2023. “I’m always dreaming. I’m always doing, and I hope to do that ’til the day I die.”
On her legacy
“I’d like to be thought of as a decent human being,” Parton told CBS News’ Anthony Mason in 2024. “When you think of me when I’m gone, I’d like you to smile, to think, ‘Oh, she was funny,’ or ‘Oh, she had a good sense of humor, you know, when she was sad, she’d make a joke about it.’”
She said she wanted to be known as “just a regular person.”
“I always say I’m a workhorse that looks like a show horse,” she said. “I just hope I leave something good behind for other people to enjoy and to draw from.”
