Less is More

In my audio recording library, I have an audio-tape in which Dr. Lillian Glass talks about how she was coaching Dolly Parton to find deeper levels of her voice. At one point of the coaching, Dr. Glass told Dolly that “Less is More” - meaning she needed to breathe less in order to access those deeper levels. Without missing a beat, Dolly replied, “Look who’s talking! I’ve got more and I won’t lie to you, people like my more!” Well, Dolly is well-endowed and known for her large bust. But the truth is that less is more. Speaking on Oprah in 2003, Dolly once said, “If I see something sagging, bagging and dragging, I’m going to nip it, tuck it, and suck it!” Let’s nip, tuck and suck the excess. Less is more!
