Janis Joplin

I'm one of those regular weird people.

On stage, I make love to 25,000 different people, then I go home alone.

Don't compromise yourself. You are all you've got.

I totally understand that I am a little outrageous in some ways... I'm a little un-P.C., but I really wish I had the chance to perform for the American fans.

I don't like to get in front of people.

To a person sitting quietly at home, Rocky Mountain traveling, like Rocky Mountain scenery, must seem very monotonous; but not so to me, to whom the pure, dry mountain air is the elixir of life.
