To me, it makes more sense to write different songs and to play different kinds of music and to find your own voice. But no matter what, get out and play for people. Get out and learn, and do everything that you can, you know?

More quotes by Corey Taylor
I sin like crazy, but I protect my people.
Corey Taylor
I'm a very lucky guy. I get to write music that I love, and lo and behold, people seem to really like it. I know how fortunate I am.
Corey Taylor
Everyone knows Spiderman is my favorite superhero of all time. My favorite supervillain? George W. Bush.
Corey Taylor
I didn't have the worst childhood, but I didn't have the best, and when you grow up like that, you have certain limitations invariably stuck inside you. Slipknot was a way to work it out.
Corey Taylor
I'm a Gibson guy. I play anything from Hummingbirds to J200s.
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
When I'm working on a Slipknot song, it's like a switch flips in my head. I can go there easily - it doesn't take a lot of soul searching - and it's a dark, almost sinister place. Stone Sour is more the way I've always written. It's a different tone.
Corey Taylor
Some of the smartest people I know are metal fans.
Corey Taylor
You have to live in these moments, not for them. If you look too hard, they blow right by you. If you do not live enough, you will regret every breath.
Corey Taylor
I still harbor lingering doubts about most people. I guess I always will.
Corey Taylor
The biggest difference between me and other artists out there is that they'll put anything out to sell a record or sell a ticket.
Corey Taylor
I want karma to drive stakes into the dark hearts that keep me bitter.
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
The fact that the public are mesmerised by Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan and all these miserable people makes me laugh because those celebrities are more miserable than the people reading about them for escapism.
Corey Taylor
It's amazing and sad what we have to do to survive sometimes.
Corey Taylor
If everything is happy go-lucky all the time, you don't know when you're experiencing joy and feeling life at its finest moments. You have to suffer a little.
Corey Taylor
The mind is left bereft when it is nothing more than a tool of regurgitation.
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
Slipknot is the darkness Stone Sour is the light. Slipknot is chaos Stone Sour is structure.
Corey Taylor
Show me on the doll where Fun is a rock band.
