Surprisingly, I don't think I've covered any quotes by Janis Joplin yet! I say "surprisingly" because she's among one of my favorite older artists to listen to, and in my opinion she was a phenomenal singer who died well before her time. I've decided to post this quote collection to top off my posts for the week- I'm tired and I need sleep, but I'm also dedicating this post to my dad and his recent artwork purchase. I'm sure there will be a proper post showing off the painting when it arrives, but in short, my dad found a talented foreign artist who does psychedelic paintings and he ordered a painting of Janis Joplin (among others). This inspired me to go hunting for quotes, and what follows are the quotes that I found and liked.
"Don't compromise yourself. You're all you've got." "You are what you settle for. You are only as much as you settle for." "You can destroy your now, worrying about tomorrow." "Being an intellectual creates a lot of questions and no answers. You can fill your life up with ideas and still go home lonely. All you really have that really matters are feelings. That's what music is to me.” "We don't forgive people because they deserve it. We forgive them because they need it- because we need it. We all need it." "I always wanted to be an artist, whatever that was. Like other chicks wanted to be stewardesses. I read. I painted. I thought."
