More quotes by Janis Joplin
Freedom is just another word for when you have NOTHING left to lose.
Janis Joplin
You can destroy your now by worrying about tomorrow.
Janis Joplin
If you've got a today, don't wear it tomorrow. Tomorrow never happens. It's all the same day.
Janis Joplin
People, whether they know it or not, like their blues singers miserable. They like their blues singers to die afterwards.
Janis Joplin
I can't talk about my singing I'm inside it. How can you describe something you're inside of?
Janis Joplin
Audiences like their blues singers to be miserable.
Janis Joplin
It's hard to be free but when it works, it's worth it!
Janis Joplin
I'm not really thinking much... Just sort of, trying to feel.
Janis Joplin
I think I think too much. That's why I drink!
Janis Joplin
I don't know what happened. I just exploded. I'd never sung like that before. I used to stand still and sing simple, but you can't sing like that in front of a rock band. You have to sing loud and move wild with all that in back of you. Now, I don't know how to perform any other way.
Janis Joplin
I believe the only people who truly experience and test the application of equality are twins.
Janis Joplin
I had a lot of hurts and confusions. You know, it's hard when you're a kid to be different. You're all full of things, and you don't know that it's about.
Janis Joplin
Gimme a pigfoot and a bottle of beer.
Janis Joplin
I want a bigger band with higher highs, a bigger ladder. And I want more bottom - I want an incredible amount of bottom. I want more noise. When I do a rock tune I want it to be so HUGE.
Janis Joplin
I always wanted to be an artist, whatever that was, like other chicks want to be stewardesses. I read. I painted. I thought.
Janis Joplin
Don't compromise your self, you're all you got.
Janis Joplin
To be true to myself, to be the person that was on the inside of me, and not play games. That's what I'm trying to do mostly in the whole world, is not bullshit myself and not bullshit anybody else.
Janis Joplin
You can feel all things at once, so why not wear all things at once?
Janis Joplin
Distance cannot kill this relationship. Time cannot breakdown anything we have. This is a relationship that I am ready to sacrifice and stand up for.
Janis Joplin
In my insides, it really hurts if someone doesn't like me. It's silly.
Janis Joplin
