More quotes by Corey Taylor
I don't know whether we will find ourselves in the cross hairs, pulled by the short hairs, or just trying to find the next inane hairstyle. But change is coming it is inevitable. It is as steady and reliable as a ticking clock.
Corey Taylor
You can make a thousand promises to yourself that you'll take that same fantastic love and give it to someone else, but the moment you see that person with someone else, it's like a gut full of razorblades. It never gets easier. And it shouldn't, really.
Corey Taylor
I still harbor lingering doubts about most people. I guess I always will.
Corey Taylor
The first year I was sober was probably the worst year of my life. My immune system was screwed. I completely isolated myself. I was weak all the time. I didn't know who I was.
Corey Taylor
I didn't write my speech until the night before, and even then I refused to write it out like I would say it, preferring to keep cribbed notes I could come back to if necessary. I wanted this to feel like a conversation because it was what I wanted to say that mattered, not how it looked on paper.
Corey Taylor
You don't break ground by doing the same thing over and over and over. That's like standing in place. You have to risk to gain it all.
Corey Taylor
I'm a Gibson guy. I play anything from Hummingbirds to J200s.
Corey Taylor
I don't feel guilty about the music I love. If you feel guilty about something you dig, then you should stop feeling guilty about it. One of my favorite albums to this day is the 10th anniversary ensemble cast of 'Les Miserables,' the ultimate cast recording, and it is still something I love listening to top to bottom.
Corey Taylor
Live your life, no matter what that life is.
Corey Taylor
Too many people chase dreams that they don't understand. Too many people try to go for things that they'd like to do, but they're not realistic enough to know they don't have the talent.
Corey Taylor
I still have night terrors about things happening to my son. The worst things cross your mind when you care so much. I keep them at bay as best I can, and it's a struggle for me not to just do everything for him.
Corey Taylor
My biggest influences were 1980s punk and metal. Metallica were my biggest influence because they were good at everything - riffs, energy - but with such an ear for melody, it was hard not to get pulled into it and become a fanatic.
Corey Taylor
The weird thing about metal fans is we're all so maladjusted in a lot of ways. We're individualistic and opinionated and severe in our personalities - sometimes we really turn each other off. A little bit of a metal fan goes a long way.
Corey Taylor
I think you're always gonna have half the generation that's lazy. But I think it makes the other half work that much harder.
Corey Taylor
She has BIG feet! Oh my god, have you seen Sandra Bullocks feet? They're like the size of rulers!
Corey Taylor
The mind is left bereft when it is nothing more than a tool of regurgitation.
Corey Taylor
RADIO IS DEAD. The once-bright star that was public broadcasting has been destroyed by greed and corproate muscle to the point that even the music that is completely repugnant is positioned to be popular.
Corey Taylor
But I always kind of knew in the back of my head that I could come back and do Stone Sour.
Corey Taylor
I want karma to drive stakes into the dark hearts that keep me bitter.
Corey Taylor
Anyone who feels that homosexuality is not only a sin but also a disease or a mental issue should take a look in the mirror and realize who the real crazy person is.
