Don't compromise yourself. You are all you've got.
Janis Joplin
I've been looking around, and I noticed something: how much you really need to be loved. Ambition isn't just a desperate quest for positions or money. It's just love - lots of love.
Janis Joplin
My father wouldn't get us a TV, he wouldn't allow a TV in the house.
Janis Joplin
I'm one of those regular weird people.
Janis Joplin
Who you are is what you settle for, you know?

Janis Joplin
Billie Holiday, Aretha Franklin. Now, they are so subtle, they can milk you with two notes. They can make you feel like they told you the whole universe. But I don't know that yet. All I got now is strength. Maybe if I keep singing, maybe I'll get it.
Janis Joplin
Being an intellectual creates a lot of questions and no answers.
Janis Joplin

Janis Joplin
You got to get it while you can.
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
Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz.
Janis Joplin
I'm a victim of my own insides. There was a time when I wanted to know everything. It used to make me very unhappy, all that feeling. I just didn't know what to do with it. But now I've learned to make that feeling work for me.
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
If I hold back, I'm no good. I'm no good. I'd rather be good sometimes, than holding back all the time.
Janis Joplin
I won't quit to become someone's old lady.
Janis Joplin
Rock on out.
Janis Joplin
When I sing, I feel like when you're first in love. It's more than sex. It's that point two people can get to they call love, when you really touch someone for the first time, but it's gigantic, multiplied by the whole audience. I feel chills.
