Janis Joplin

Janis Joplin

Janis Joplin

Janis Joplin
In my insides, it really hurts if someone doesn't like me. It's silly.
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
You got to get it while you can.
Janis Joplin
Guess what, I might be the first hippie pinup girl.
Janis Joplin
Audiences like their blues singers to be miserable.
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
Don't compromise your self, you're all you got.
Janis Joplin
I think I think too much. That's why I drink!
Janis Joplin
