More quotes by Janis Joplin
I think I think too much. That's why I drink!
Janis Joplin
I talk to the audience, look into their eyes. I need them and they need me.
Janis Joplin
They asked me, How did you learn to sing the blues like that? How did you learn to sing that heavy? I just opened my mouth and that's what I sounded like. You can't make up something that you don't feel. I didn't make it up. I just opened my mouth and it existed.
Janis Joplin
I'm just doing what I wanted to and what feels right and not settling for bullshit and it worked. How can they be mad at that?
Janis Joplin
As good as you've been to this world is as good as it's gonna be right back to you.
Janis Joplin
If someone comes along, gonna give you some love and affection, I say get it while you can.
Janis Joplin
You got to get it while you can.
Janis Joplin
All any girl really wants is just love and a man. But what man can put up with a rock-n-roll star?
Janis Joplin
When everything is together - the band, me, the audience, it's boss! It's just like magic.
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
Gimme a pigfoot and a bottle of beer.
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 would trade all my tomorrow's for one single yesterday.
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
I won't quit to become someone's old lady.
Janis Joplin
In my insides, it really hurts if someone doesn't like me. It's silly.
Janis Joplin
If I hold back, I'm no good. I'm no good. I'd rather be good sometimes, than holding back all the time.
Janis Joplin
Audiences like their blues singers to be miserable.
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
At least we know we tend to be afraid. If you object to my plural noun, I'll retract it.
Janis Joplin
