More quotes by Janis Joplin
You got to get it while you can.
Janis Joplin
I just want to feel as much as I can, it's what soul is all about.
Janis Joplin
I got treated very badly in Texas. They don't treat beatniks too good in Texas. Port Arthur people thought I was a beatnik, though they'd never seen one and neither had I.
Janis Joplin
You can destroy your now by worrying about tomorrow.
Janis Joplin
I'm not really thinking much... Just sort of, trying to feel.
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
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
You know you've got it, if it makes you feel good.
Janis Joplin
I think I think too much. That's why I drink!
Janis Joplin
I'm tired of all these hippie jack-offs
Janis Joplin
Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz.
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
When everything is together - the band, me, the audience, it's boss! It's just like magic.
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
Freedom is just another word for when you have NOTHING left to lose.
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 believe the only people who truly experience and test the application of equality are twins.
Janis Joplin
It's hard to be free but when it works, it's worth it!
Janis Joplin
Like most girls I'm always really self-conscious about do I look fat, if my legs are short, if I'm weird shaped, but when I go on stage, man, it never occurs to me. I think I look beautiful.
Janis Joplin
