More quotes by Janis Joplin
Don't compromise your self, you're all you got.
Janis Joplin
You are what you settle for. You are only as much as you settle for.
Janis Joplin
I think I think too much. That's why I drink!
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'm not really thinking much... Just sort of, trying to feel.
Janis Joplin
Don't go looking for Mr. Right. Look for Mr. Right Now.
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
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
People, whether they know it or not, like their blues singers miserable. They like their blues singers to die afterwards.
Janis Joplin
I would trade all my tomorrow's for one single yesterday.
Janis Joplin
I'm one of those regular weird people.
Janis Joplin
I can't talk about my singing I'm inside it. How can you describe something you're inside of?
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 believe the only people who truly experience and test the application of equality are twins.
Janis Joplin
You can feel all things at once, so why not wear all things at once?
Janis Joplin
If you've got a today, don't wear it tomorrow. Tomorrow never happens. It's all the same day.
Janis Joplin
Oh, Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz - My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends.
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
You can destroy your now by worrying about tomorrow.
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
