I came out here, to this point, to this place, hoping against all hope and despite signs and portends suggesting otherwise that I might, somehow, find myself having a pleasant experience, and yet here I stand, alone against the world, feeling assaulted, attacked on all fronts, knowing not my enemy’s name nor his face nor whether our battle is done.

Dolly Parton quotes, part 3 of 3

okay guys let me talk to you about dolly parton

dolly parton is the best

i love dolly parton and please acknowledge that she’s a queen

Dolly Parton has come up with some of my fav quotes. Two I remember very well are:

“No money doesn’t make you happy but at least you can wear nice clothes while you’re miserable.”

“No it doesn’t bother me when people call me a dumb blonde because I know I’m not dumb and I know I’m not blonde.”

dolly parton once entered a dolly parton look-alike contest and lost.

as someone with a bachelor’s degree in english, i am inexpressibly tired of people telling me to get highly specific jobs that often require highly specific degrees. “just go write for a magazine!” you need a journalism degree for that. “just teach!” you need a teaching certificate, and also fuck you. “just go work at a tutoring place!” tutoring children with learning disabilities, which make up the majority of the clientele at those places, requires not only a teaching certificate but a specialized master’s degree. “just go work at a library!” you need a master’s degree in library science to be a librarian. it is actually a highly skilled and extremely competitive field. you don’t just “go work at a library,” you train for years in the vain hope that you will get one of handful of available jobs. “just go work at a library.” the nerve. the unmitigated gall. “just go work at a library.” ugh.

THE PART ABOUT LIBRARIES IS ESPECIALLY TRUE AND YOU SHOULD SAY IT THANK YOU OP.
