More quotes by Janis Joplin
Audiences like their blues singers to be miserable.
Janis Joplin
I think I think too much. That's why I drink!
Janis Joplin
Guess what, I might be the first hippie pinup girl.
Janis Joplin
People, whether they know it or not, like their blues singers miserable. They like their blues singers to die afterwards.
Janis Joplin
Life is too damn short and [screwed] up to go through it silently loving someone and never telling them how you feel. [Screw] the consequences, [screw] the implications of the actions, to hell with it all... whatever happens as a result is better than the nothingness that is inevitable with silence.
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
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
You know you've got it, if it makes you feel good.

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
In my insides, it really hurts if someone doesn't like me. It's silly.
Janis Joplin
If someone comes along, gonna give you some love and affection, I say get it while you can.
Janis Joplin
Don't compromise your self, you're all you got.
Janis Joplin
At my concerts most of the chicks are looking for liberation, they think I'm gonna show 'em how to do it.
Janis Joplin
I can't talk about my singing I'm inside it. How can you describe something you're inside of?
Janis Joplin
Oh, Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz - My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends.
Janis Joplin
Gimme a pigfoot and a bottle of beer.
Janis Joplin
I'm one of those regular weird people.
Janis Joplin
I'm tired of all these hippie jack-offs
Janis Joplin
Why should I hold back now and sound mediocre, just so I can sound mediocre twenty years from now?
Janis Joplin
