Corey Quotes

#1. And then our children were born. We held their American birth certificates tight. We did not name our children after our parents, after ourselves; we feared if we did they would not be able to say their own names, that their friends and teachers would not know how to call them. We gave them names that would make them belong in America, names that did not mean anything to us: Aaron, Josh, Dana, Corey, Jack, Kathleen. When our children were born, we did not bury their umbilical cords under the earth to bind them to the land because we had no land to call ours. #Quote by NoViolet Bulawayo, We Need New Names

It is the light that keeps me out of the shadows, and it is the reason my immortal soul is not in dire straits. #Quote by Corey Taylor

#11. When I asked him the meaning of life, Dr. Webb got very quiet and then told me life has no one meaning, it only has whatever meaning each of us puts on our own life. I'll tell you now that I still don't know the meaning of mine. And Lucas Cader, with all his brains and talent, doesn't know the meaning of his, either. But I'll tell you the meaning of all this. The meaning of some bird showing up and some boy disappearing and you knowing all about it. The meaning of this was not to save you, but to warn you instead. To warn you of confusion and delusion and assumption. To warn you of psychics and zombies and ghosts of your lost brother. To warn you of Ada Taylor and her sympathy and mothers who wake you up with vacuums. To warn you of two-foot-tall birds that say they can help, but never do. #Quote by John Corey Whaley

#24. There are allegations actually that he's [Vladimir Putin] associated with real gangsters in the past and that he runs his top circle sort of like a mafia family.

Hello, welcome to your centuries-long voyage to build a human settlement around another star! Here's your cubicle. #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#28. I like the backup plan better," Amos said. "Backup plan?" Prax asked. "The backup plan is I grab the first guy we see, and beat him until he tells us where the kids are." Prax #Quote by James S.A. Corey

"Summary roadside justice," Alex grunted back. #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#58. 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.

#64. There's such a huge difference between a great arrangement of riffs and a song. Sometimes the two can be the same. But the difference is a song doesn't necessarily need a riff, whereas a riff doesn't necessarily mean you've got a good song on your hands. #Quote by Corey Taylor

#65. We've all changed," he said. "By coming here. By going through the trials that we're all going through, we've all been changed. When we go back, none of us will be the people we were before. The tragedy and the loss and the sense of wonder changes what it means to be human. Do you know what I mean?" Oddly, Anna thought she did. Being a minister meant being in the middle of people's lives. Anna had counseled dating congregation members, presided over their weddings, baptized their babies, and in one heartbreaking case presided over the infant's funeral a year later. Members of the congregation included her in most of the important events of their lives. She was used to it, and mostly enjoyed the deep connection to people it brought. Charting the course of a life was making a map of the ways each event changed the person, leaving someone different on the other side. Passing through the Ring and the tragedies it had brought wouldn't leave any of them the same. #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#66. I don't see anything," Miller said. "What's it look like?"

#77. The name Alaska is probably an abbreviation of Unalaska, derived from the original Aleut word agunalaksh, which means "the shores where the sea breaks its back." The war between water and land is never-ending. Waves shatter themselves in spent fury against the rocky bulwarks of the coast; giant tides eat away the sand beaches and alter the entire contour of an island overnight; williwaw winds pour down the side of a volcano like snow sliding off a roof, building to a hundred-mile velocity in a matter of minutes and churning the ocean into a maelstrom where the stoutest vessels founder. #Quote by Corey Ford

#78. Well, mostly I'm a mechanic. But the idea that the UN has a file on me somewhere that lists me as the Rocinante's killer? That's kind of awesome. #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#80. After a few decades, you come to a place where you realize that there's really no difference between trying and not trying ...

#81. Wars aren't like that." "Aren't like what?" Roberts said. "Aren't like stories about wars," Vandercaust #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#84. I'm going to Tycho Station. There's someone there I ... trust." "Trust?" "Don't actively distrust." "Naomi think it's the right thing?" "I don't know. I didn't ask her. But I think so." "Close enough," Miller said. #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#85. I still harbor lingering doubts about most people. I guess I always will. #Quote by Corey Taylor

#88. The moral high ground is a lovely place. It won't stop a missile, though. It won't alter the trajectory of a gauss round. #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#89. The goat, for us, is an image that's stuck in our heads since we were kids, coming from Iowa people are like 'Beware the horned goat of satan!' and all that. It's bullshit. It's just an animal. #Quote by Corey Taylor

#90. You gotta remember: we're musicians ... we're just crazy people who can't get along sometimes. I've definitely come to the table with my knife in my pocket a couple of times; you know how it is. It's part of being human. Now add fame and money and all that rock and roll craziness to it - we're lucky we don't eat each other in this industry! #Quote by Corey Taylor

#91. Don't," Naomi said, letting him go, "pull your gun on anyone." "They have guns." "Guns plural. You have gun singular, which is why you will keep yours in your holster, or you'll do this by yourself." That's #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#92. The missionary lifted his hands in a gesture of harmlessness that went back to the African plains of the Pleistocene. I have no weapon; I seek no fight. I'm #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#93. Naomi shrugged with her hands, then started pulling her hair behind her head and tying it up with a red elastic band. #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#98. Canada?" Ash said. "You didn't say it was in Canada.
"I said Ontario." (Maya)
"I thought you meant Ontario, California."
"Seriously?" Tori said,rolling her eyes. "A helicopter to California? You may be hot,but your sister clearly inherited all the brains in the family."
"Did she call me hot?" Ash whispered to me, looking more annoyed than he ever did when someone called him a jerk.
"She hasn't been on a date in six months", Derek rumbled behind us. "No offense, but as long as aren't related to her, you're fair game. Hell, even
"
Tori spun on him. "I didn't know."
"Um, wait a sec," Corey said. "So Ash is hot and I'm seriously cute? Is there a difference?"
"Yes," Hayley said, and propelled him through the line. #Quote by Kelley Armstrong

#103. I knew the second I met you that you'd save my life someday. #Quote by John Corey Whaley

#104. You ask yourself what happens," Miller said. "Ask yourself what Naomi'd do." Holden barked out a laugh. "Is that how you make your decisions?" Miller let his eyes close. Juliette Mao was there, sitting on the couch at her old apartment on Ceres. Fighting the crew of the stealth ship to a standstill. Burst open by the alien virus on the floor of her shower stall. "Something like it," Miller said. #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#105. Funny how a wife can spot a blonde hair at twenty yards, yet miss the garage doors. #Quote by Corey Ford

#106. Hey," Alex said, his voice thoughtful. "If we made those nukes stop listening, that means we can't shut 'em down, right? Wonder where Fred's going to drop those." "Hell if I know," Amos said.

#114. When we place the Bible on equal footing with God, we become paralyzed by how to deal with it--because any criticism of the Bible becomes criticism of God himself.

The cure for the religion of Biblicism is the realization that Jesus is the inerrant Word of God, and the Bible is just a collection of inspired and useful writings that introduce us to him.

Let me be clear: whenever we find tension between something Jesus taught and something taught elsewhere in the Bible, the tiebreaker always goes to Jesus. Always. #Quote by Benjamin L. Corey

#116. We are who we are. You know that better than anyone. #Quote by John Corey Whaley

I wasn't sure I disagreed. #Quote by Kelley Armstrong

#118. Holden shot him in the throat. Somewhere in his brain stem, Detective Miller nodded in approval. #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#119. It is true that we are not conscious of our dependence, but by admitting our free will we arrive at absurdity, while by admitting our dependence on the external world, on time, and on cause, we arrive at laws." In #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#120. Point of clarification," Alex said, raising his hand. "We have an apocalypse comin'? Was that a thing we knew about?" "Venus," Avasarala said. "Oh. That apocalypse," Alex said, lowering his hand. "Right. #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#121. How many times can you get yourself massively irradiated before it catches up with you?" "At least once more? #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#122. Working in some corporations was like going to prison. You adopted the views of the people around you. #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#123. We'll forget how to do this, Holden thought. Humanity had only just started learning how to live in space, and now they'd forget. Why develop new strategies for surviving on tiny stations like Medina when there were a thousand new worlds to conquer, with air and water free for the taking? It was an astounding thought, but it also left Holden just a little melancholy. #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#124. He looks back down to find that his brother is no longer there. He is no longer there to stop him from ridiculing Merle Hodge or making some smart-ass remark about woodpeckers. He doesn't stop him when he thinks about asking the tour guide an unanswerable question or when he considers pretending to see a large bird off in the distance. He isn't there anymore to supply Cullen Witter with endless chances to do better. #Quote by John Corey Whaley

#125. What?" Holden said, a brief image of the asteroid sneaking up like a cartoon villain on the two circling warships popping into his head. "Yeah, #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#126. On the musical side, I always wanted to kind of carry on Pink Floyd's sound. You know, Pink Floyd always had such an original, creative and masterful sound, but there are no new albums. My thought was that there's a way to keep their sound alive. #Quote by Corey Feldman

#127. When I was a kid, I had THE biggest crush on Helen Reddy. I mean like for REAL crush - like 'spend some time in the bathroom thinking about her' crush. I blme Pete's Dragon.

#128. He tried to help the world, but the world wouldn't let him. #Quote by John Corey Whaley

#129. John Belushi had that aura of someone who doesn't have a lot of time - that's why he was a little frantic about everything. I think Oscar [Acosta] had that too.

#139. The messages coming back flooded the comm buffers with rage and sorrow, threats of vengeance and offers of aid. Those last were the hardest. New colonies still trying to force their way into local ecosystems so exotic that their bodies could hardly recognize them as life at all, isolated, exhausted, sometimes at the edge of their resources. And what they wanted was to send back help. He listened to their voices, saw the distress in their eyes. He couldn't help, but love them a little bit.

Under the best conditions, disasters and plagues did that. It wasn't universally true. There would always be hoarders and price gouging, people who closed their doors to refugees and left them freezing and starving. But the impulse to help was there too. To carry a burden together, even if it meant having less for yourself. Humanity had come as far as it had in a haze of war, sickness, violence, and genocide. History was drenched in blood. But it also had cooperation and kindness, generosity, intermarriage. The one didn't come without the other. #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#140. Nothing was normal yet, and so nothing was strange. #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#141. defense we've got right now is everyone's in the habit of not killing each other and taking their shit.

#148. I have very diverse tastes in music, and I don't, like, make distinctions between what I can't and can't listen to. In fact, I could never understand why anybody would do that in the first place. My attitude is, 'I can't make music if I don't like music.' #Quote by Corey Taylor

#149. There's another mess of legal crap just came through from the UN for you." Holden sighed. "Am I supposed to read it?" "Don't see how they can make you," Amos said. "Just thought you'd want to ignore it intentionally." "Thank you. Sort of," Holden #Quote by James S.A. Corey

#150. It's a real shame. I like how people act on holidays. Everyone just seems ... I don't know

And with the click of a button he'd killed them. He #Quote by James S.A. Corey

If they aren't, no amount of hectoring them does any good. #Quote by James S.A. Corey
