“I’m not a big fan of IMAX theaters, no. They’re too clean. They’re too nice. I need gross. I need, like, jujubes hangin’ from the ceiling. I need, like, sticky floors. Where I’m like, ‘What do they show on the weekends when nobody’s here?’ Questionable shit? Absolutely. Holes in the popcorn boxes. It is what it is. It’s a dream, okay? Don’t judge me.”

“Anywhere selling fried chicken is my Mecca. There’s a KFC in almost every country. But in England, they don’t have mashed potatoes and gravy. How do you eat KFC without fucking mash and gravy? That’s bullshit.”

- Corey Taylor, Revolver Magazine, 2007.

“So many people limit themselves by holding onto that baggage. They cut themselves off at the knees. And for me, meeting my father, and seeing how he was, and seeing that other side of where I came from, allowed me to kind of ascend spiritually. Now not to get all hippy or anything, but, you cant realise your potential unless you LET yourself realise your own potential.”

“She has BIG feet! Oh my god, have you seen Sandra Bullocks feet? They’re like the size of rulers!”

“We had three or four strikes against us to begin with. We were a nine piece band, from Des Moine, Iowa, at the time playing brutal metal. There is no way in hell we should have made it. We tapped on something that was out there that people needed. There was a pissed off group of people that were tired of the really soft, really dishonest message that was going on out there.”

- Corey Taylor, Unmasked Interview (YouTube) 2008.

Thank you, so so much. I appreciate that. I love all the slipknot/stone sour/Corey Taylor blogs out there but I found it so hard to come across any with quotes. And as we all know, Corey is the big lovable loudmouth, he’s very opinionated and everything he says is so valid and and so honest. I just wanted to created a blog where I could proudly share his words and hopefully inspire others.
Couldn’t resist following you - checked out your blog and basically every post had me salivating. You have great taste xx

“Here’s what I’m gunna say about bullying. If you have the power to help other people, and instead you use that power against other people, and you make other people feel like shit about who they are, because YOU feel like shit about who YOU are, YOU’RE a piece of shit. Straight up. And I’m not fucking one of these new age people that says everyone can be saved. Some of you can’t. Some of you are gunna fucking run down the fucking side of your leg. But I will give everyone a chance. And it’s not just like that in school. Bullying continues all through fucking life. It’s in your work. It’s in people who decide to give a little bit of power, and decide they’re going to use it for a lot of fucking bullshit. It’s in politics. I think it’s painfully small how these bullies can be.”

- Corey Taylor, live in Pheonix, Arizona, 2011.

I appreciate every single one of you! I’ve noticed a lot of people are reblogging my posts and leaving the quote attached. This is so nice :-)

I hope everyone is being inspired by CT! Peace xx

“The things that scare me are real life situations. Real life is much more scary than anything you can put on the movie screen. Which is why I get very upset when people try to blame the movies for the violence in this world. I’m like ‘Are you kidding me?’. There is more violence in a four hour period on CNN than any movie I have in my massive collection.”

- Corey Taylor, Hot Topic interview, October 2010.

Oh I know exactly how you feel! He is my number one hero and has been for nearly 13 years. I respect him so much and it’d be such a privilege if I ever got to shake his hand one day.
Thanks so much for your message! Always great to meet a fellow admirer! :)
