I tend to keep my private life private. I think it's important to have mystique. It's important to keep people thinking and guessing, and you want everyone to think you're singing to them.

You got nothing to lose. You don't lose when you lose fake friends.

I bought one of those Learn How to Play Guitar Chords By Yourself and it shows you the diagram where to put your hands and I took that in my room, sat with my singles and learned how to play guitar.

I love to engage with people who come to see us.

Shaving my head was a millennium ritual, to not let it pass as just another New Year's Eve. A lot has happened to me in the last couple of years, personally and spiritually. I wanted to mark it for myself.
Joan Jett
Image
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
Image
I left my family, and I left my brother and sister, and I went and lived my dream. I saw everybody, but is it ever enough?
Joan Jett
Image
When I met you you were oh so sweet, now you give me the bread and you take all the meat.

I know music is subjective.
Joan Jett
Image
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.
Joan Jett
Image
I remember times when I was at shows and the person onstage locked eyes with me. And in that moment, everything was right with the world. I think that's part of my job, to create these thousands of moments every night. And for the rest of their life, they can say, 'You guys looked at me,' or 'You sweated on me,' or 'I got your gum.'

I grew up in a world that told girls they couldn't play rock 'n' roll.

Disharmony is natural in any band.
Joan Jett
Image
Women play cellos and violins in symphony orchestras. They're playing Beethoven and Bach. What do you mean they can't play rock and roll?

It's easier to sit there and say you don't like feminists because they don't have a sense of humor.
Joan Jett
Image
The better your base is, and the more you know from experience, the better off you'll be when you try and make the big move.
Joan Jett
Image
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.

We all make judgments on people, but some are much more brutal than others. It's easy to say, 'Ya know, I'm not crazy about what she's wearing,' but you don't have to be nasty about it, and you don't have to be public about it.

I don't really care if you think I'm strange--I ain't gonna change!
Joan Jett

I don't know if I miss it per se, but I do miss the fact that there just doesn't seem to be any rock 'n' roll out there anyplace. Everything does seem kind of tame. It's even hard in Manhattan to go out and find a good band to go see.
