Corey Feldman Quotations

As a kid, I liked the 'Halloween' movies and 'Nightmare On Elm Street' and all that kind of stuff. But as an adult, I really don't watch much horror, to be honest.

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.

I'd say that animal rights and environmental issues have always been at the forefront of my mind.

Fatherhood is the most amazing thing that could ever have happened in my life.

You have to stay updated on trends, social things and pop culture, you need to stay with the times and keep evolving.

When God put everybody here, I don't think that he had a master plan of a pecking order. That's not what you see in the Bible. I disagree with that notion, so in my estimation, we've all been put on this planet to share it. It is our duty and our obligation and our responsibility to make sure that we've done so in the proper fashion.

I knew how to read a contract by 10 years old, but I didn't know what it meant for somebody to come in and tell me they loved me and kiss me goodnight. That's a problem.

I would like, in the long term, to be recognized as a writer-director-actor.

I'm a big kid, I'm a kid at heart, so I still love the classic family films, such as the great Warner Bros film 'Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory' - not the remake, but the original. It's still one of the best movies, hands down, ever made, and of course that goes back to the ingenuity of the characters and the storyline.

My addiction has always been beautiful women, being surrounded by them.

We're all made to make mistakes; nobody's perfect.

I look for the safety of my child. I don't really care about me.

I met my wife by breaking two of my rules: never date a girl seriously that you meet at a nightclub and never date a fan.

It's funny; I actually made poorer decisions when I sobered up then when I was screwed up.

It was a great experience for a kid, because it was a bunch of kids playing on pirate ships and water slides, so looking back on it, it was the fondest experience of my childhood.

My discrepancy with children in the industry is that they are made famous before they know who they are as human beings.

When I am working, I am working. When I am promoting, I am promoting. The rest of the time, I try to stay under the radar a bit.

I literally was famous before I knew my own name,

The people that become the biggest jokes are people who do not change. They stay the way they were in the past. Look at Michael Jackson, he never evolved.

When I had my child, I planned on being with the woman I had him with for the rest of my life. If that doesn't work out, you have to see things from a different perspective.

Whereas I used to get depressed or neurotic or dwell on things, I see my son's bright eyes and smile in the morning, and suddenly, I don't feel like I'm depressed anymore. There's nothing to be depressed about when you've got that.

I'm more than an actor. I'm an icon, an industry.

The more romance novelists that are out there, making romanticized ideas of vampirism for the kids, the more people want to see a real action movie, putting the bad guys where they belong, as the bad guys, and looking for a hero to come along and defend our very souls.

I feel very fortunate to have been a part of many successful contemporary horror franchises.

I have led a pretty colorful life.

I was never taught how to raise a child, because I wasn't raised properly.

I've been labeled all my life.

Self-realization is great.

As an actor, you're pretty much a hired gun. You are reading other people's words off of a page and doing what they want you to do.

I had a very rough and tumultuous childhood.

I don't want to be lumped into any categories.

Fans have always said that I would make a great Indiana Jones, a great Young Indiana Jones.

Child stars have nothing. They have no choice.

Thrillers are my favorite. I like stuff that keeps you on the edge of your seat or maybe makes you jump.

People always want to pin yesterday's news on you, as opposed to asking you what you're going to do for the future, what you're doing today.

My acting career began at age three and my parents got me into it. I was in a McDonald's commercial.

I started working when I was three years old and was basically known before I knew who my own name was. My parents needed money, so at that time it became my responsibility to pay the bills.

I never used needles, but I was into heroin, cocaine - those are the things I'll never touch again.

Becoming an actor wasn't a choice, it was something I was forced into. At 3, you can't make those choices... I supported my family, and if I got fired or missed an audition, I'd be punished as if I'd messed up in school. I was starved, because they wanted to keep my weight at a certain place; my hair was bleached; that was my life. I wasn't allowed to play with kids on my block or ride a bike or play ball, in case I got a scratch, I wasn't even allowed to be bar mitzvahed because I couldn't attend enough lessons.

I've been to the top and I've been to the bottom more times than most people ride in an elevator.

I always keep my options open. I always say, "Make me an offer and send me the script, and if it's something that I can connect to or relate to..." The character has to intrigue me, and the project overall has to intrigue me. And if it all lines up properly, then we can get into the business side of it. But it's always about the creative first.

I like the idea of building the suspense and taking it all the way up to the very last second with the suspense, and right when you think you can't take it anymore, then you come in with the joke and kind of break the tension. To me, that's the best kind of film. I like thrillers, so thrillers with comedy, to me, is always the best.

I had a very rough and tumultuous childhood. I often wish that I had the opportunity to make my own choices in life and choose my own path. But at the same time, I realize that things happen the way they're supposed to.

I believe that things happen for a reason. I think there are no coincidences in life.

As an adult, I really don't watch much horror, to be honest. I mean, I like a good thrill. Thrillers are my favorite. I like stuff that keeps you on the edge of your seat or maybe makes you jump. But what I don't like is the gore. I don't like gratuitous violence and killing and all that kind of stuff. So it's kind of an interesting paradox.

I'm a bit of a hippie.

I do believe that belief is the most powerful thing we have in this world. So, if we believe in something enough. And we have faith, we can make it a reality. That is basically the basis of my entire career and my entire life.

The thing you have to understand is that there are only so many things you can do in a year. There are only so many days in a year. There is only so much time you can set aside for certain projects.

I've never cheated on a woman.

Oh, I see people everywhere. Some are celebs, but most of my friends are just regular people. The thing is, even celebs are normal people too. Just people.

I am an avid supporter of PETA and all animals as well as animal rights programs.

With my son, I work very hard to keep him away from the press and media and I want an opportunity for him to lead as normal a life as possible.

I've always kind of lived my life to be as much as possible a positive role model for children.

I'm not as cool as you think I think I might be, and the most important things in my life are God, love and peace. Everything else is b.s. And art's kind of important, too.

As an entertainer, a comedy guy, whatever, you're never gonna be truly 100-percent happy with anything.

I want to do rock operas.

There are many ways of giving thanks. Eating turkeys doesn't have to be one of them.

It did not feel like something that was going to take over my life and destroy it. It felt like a subtle flower instead of a manipulative demon. That's the mystery of heroin.

People do not realize this, but my drug addiction was actually a short span of time. It was only for two years.

I'm a guy who's all about peace, love, and happiness. I'm a bit of a hippie.

If anything needs to get fixed in society, it's people's consumption of other people's problems.

It's simply not big enough, it's simply not fair, and these animals will wither away and die if not give the proper need and proper room. We have the capability to save these animals' lives.
