COREY HARRISON

I worked with him every day, and he was more than my grandfather. He was my best friend.

At dinner, I usually go off the chain a little bit and have whatever I want but within reason.

I box 12 rounds a day five days a week.

I can do with mistakes, but I can't deal with stupidity.

I can only have four to five ounces of food in my stomach. When you only have that much space in there, you don't want to fill it up with crap.

When the housing market fell in Las Vegas, we got so many Rolex and Tag Heuer watches it was ridiculous.

When I fire, I just look at them and I say, 'You're fired.' I don't prolong it.

I learn a lot from my dad and my grandpa, but I do things in a completely different way.

If the deal is not right, just walk away. You don't have to take it, you don't have to keep going, arguing or trying to find a middle ground. If you're not comfortable with it, just go.

I put urinals in all my houses. They save marriages.

It's funny because from the time I was a kid, I knew what I was going to do. What's even funnier is that my dad and my grandfather didn't want me to work at the pawn shop, but I was deadset on it.

There are plenty of days when I would love to get in my truck, drive to work, walk behind the pawn counter and just do a regular job.

I went and got a Lap-Band put in and the weight just started falling off. It was like someone took a backpack full of rocks off of you.

I think the No. 1 universal thing is that everybody's got that silly thing in their closet that they think could be worth money. There's always a chance you could turn on 'Pawn Stars' one day and that'd be on there.

It's weird to feel better at 31 than 25.

It was kind of like, 'Who's gonna wanna watch a show about four fat dudes in a pawnshop?'

I've fired quite a few, but I've never had an employee quit on me.

I like being busy. I couldn't sit around the house all day and do nothing.

I'm not a cook at all, but I wanted to have a house with a really nice kitchen.

One of the perks is when John Mayer calls you up and tells you, 'Hey, buddy, I just bought a ranch in Montana. When are you gonna come by? When are we gonna hang out?' It's just not something I ever expected to happen.

I used to be 400 pounds.

You look for the way something is built. You see a Prada bag and you look at the stitching at the back. If it's a fake one, then they make it really cheap. If it's a real Prada bag and I will look at it, I will count every single stitch and make sure they are exact distance apart.

We had a talk early on and decided we did not want to end up like the Hogans.

Our typical customer is a local guy who needs the money to get by for the week.

I have family that are diabetic and I've seen the hell it's put them through and I've told myself, I'm not going down like that.
