More quotes by Janis Joplin
Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz.
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
In my insides, it really hurts if someone doesn't like me. It's silly.
Janis Joplin
If you've got a today, don't wear it tomorrow. Tomorrow never happens. It's all the same day.
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
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
What we've had to do is learn to control success, put it in perspective, and not lose the essence of what we're doing - the music.
Janis Joplin
Oh, Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz - My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends.
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 think I think too much. That's why I drink!
Janis Joplin
You are what you settle for. You are only as much as you settle for.
Janis Joplin
You got to get it while you can.
Janis Joplin
I talk to the audience, look into their eyes. I need them and they need me.
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
Honey, if you've had your eye on a piece of talent and that chick down the road has been getting all the action, then you know what you gotta do... Try A Little Bit Harder.
Janis Joplin
I won't quit to become someone's old lady.
Janis Joplin
I'm tired of all these hippie jack-offs
Janis Joplin
Hippies believe the world could be a better place. Beatniks believe things aren’t going to get better and say the hell with it, stay stoned and have a good time.
Janis Joplin
It's hard to be free but when it works, it's worth it!
Janis Joplin
I believe the only people who truly experience and test the application of equality are twins.
Janis Joplin
