More quotes by Janis Joplin
I would trade all my tomorrow's for one single yesterday.
Janis Joplin
I started singing rhythmically, and now I'm learning from Otis Redding to push a song instead of just sliding over it
Janis Joplin

Janis Joplin
I'm one of those regular weird people.
Janis Joplin

Janis Joplin
You are what you settle for. You are only as much as you settle for.
Janis Joplin

Janis Joplin
Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz.
Janis Joplin
If someone comes along, gonna give you some love and affection, I say get it while you can.

Guess what, I might be the first hippie pinup girl.
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
I talk to the audience, look into their eyes. I need them and they need me.
Janis Joplin
In my insides, it really hurts if someone doesn't like me. It's silly.
Janis Joplin
I believe the only people who truly experience and test the application of equality are twins.
Janis Joplin
I love being a star more than life itself.
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
As good as you've been to this world is as good as it's gonna be right back to you.
Janis Joplin
Why should I hold back now and sound mediocre, just so I can sound mediocre twenty years from now?
Janis Joplin
