So it was out of necessity that Blackheart was born. I think it's great that now, 25 years later, we're not only putting out our own music, but are able to put out music by other bands. That's really exciting for us.

More quotes by Joan Jett
Get a book, so you know where to put your fingers. Otherwise it would be tough to learn. Also you have to fight through getting callouses on your fingers because it hurts, you are pressing your fingers on metal strings, they will hurt at first until you start building up callouses.
Joan Jett
Success isn't one straight line - it's a ladder, and there's always another rung above you to reach out for. Like anything else, there are ups and downs.
Joan Jett
Being onstage is everything thats good about life.
Joan Jett
Can't break free from the things that you do. I wanna walk, but I run back to you, that's why I hate myself for loving you.
Joan Jett
Anyone who wants to know who I am can just read my lyrics - I've always written about who I am.
Joan Jett
I think what people see in me is one slice of who I am. It does permeate my life in the sense that I don't like to be told what to do, or how to be, or how I can do it. But I'm probably a lot tamer than people would expect.
Joan Jett
It's hard to have a dialogue when you're name-calling.
Joan Jett
A lot of the touring stuff has become a drag. Traveling itself is a drag. Anyone who's been to an airport knows that.
Joan Jett
I love to engage with people who come to see us.
Joan Jett
The thing I get out of it is the connection. I remember going to shows as a kid and meeting eyes with the people in the band, and knowing they are meeting eyes with you, and that moment, that smile, and that's your moment. I want to create millions of little moments for other people.
Joan Jett
The only good thing you ever said was goodbye.
Joan Jett
A girl can do what she wants to do / And that's what I'm gonna do.
Joan Jett
It's easier to sit there and say you don't like feminists because they don't have a sense of humor.
Joan Jett
I think it's important to have mystique.
Joan Jett
One of the mistakes I made was believing that the rock 'n' roll genre as a genre was much more free than the whole pop or R&B scene.
Joan Jett
Just be yourself and everything will fall in line, the way it's supposed to be. If you're yourself, that's the best thing you can do, because you can never go damn if I'd only been myself. Live an authentic life and you don't have to worry about your reputation.
Joan Jett
Disharmony is natural in any band.
Joan Jett
If you really believe in yourself, you cannot listen to other people.
Joan Jett
I grew up in a world that told girls they couldn't play rock 'n' roll.
Joan Jett
Other people will call me a rebel, but I just feel like I'm living my life and doing what I want to do. Sometimes people call that rebellion, especially when you're a woman.
