Adam Savage Quotes
American – Entertainer Born: July 15, 1967
I reject your reality and substitute my own.
Adam Savage
In the spirit of science, there really is no such thing as a ‘failed experiment.’ Any test that yields valid data is a valid test.
Adam Savage
A failure is always an option.
Adam Savage
Am I about to feel really, really stupid?
Adam Savage
Bigger is always better.
Adam Savage
Firemen have the coolest toys ever!
Adam Savage
I am now standing in a mixture of cooling fluid, gasoline, and cola.
Adam Savage
I have some ideas on how to fix that. They’re not very good ideas, but at least they’re ideas!
Adam Savage
I just had one of those ‘what the hell are we doing’ moments.
Adam Savage
I would have to say that looked like it hurt.
Adam Savage
I wouldn’t say Jamie is an evil genius. I’m not sure he’s evil and I’m not sure he’s a genius.
Adam Savage
I’m not gonna shoot anyone with the pellet gun… Not unless I have to!
Adam Savage
Adam Savage Quotes
Isn’t television glamourous?
Adam Savage
Jamie doesn’t like to do anything hastily, and I like to do everything incredibly hastily. So therein you have the dichotomy of our patterns.
Adam Savage
Jamie’s gonna go take a break now, and I am going to continue the on-going process of making a fool of myself and go ahead and try it myself.
Adam Savage
Let’s blow some stuff up.
Adam Savage
Let’s get on our knees and pray. I don’t know to whom. Is there a patron saint of ballistics gel?
Adam Savage
My advice is to keep your lips away from the spinning things.
Adam Savage
My dignity and good television – they’ll never meet.
Adam Savage
Remember kids, I have life insurance.
Adam Savage
Stand back! I gotta get some rocket fuel out of the fridge!
Adam Savage
That aesthetic of the Star Wars universe: the do-it-yourself, hotrod ethic that George Lucas exported from his childhood, is exactly the same kind of soul behind what we do and build for the show. It may not look pretty, but it gets the job done.
Adam Savage
That’s the show. it’s like 5 minutes of science and then 10 minutes of me hurting myself.
Adam Savage
The best-case scenario is that the glass shatters in my face! How do you think that makes me feel?
Adam Savage
The only thing that differentiates you and me from a couple of fourteen year old pyromaniacs is balistic glass!
Adam Savage
There is no dignity in television.
Adam Savage
This is the point in the show where we say, ‘Oh, what else do we have in the van that’s flammable?’
Adam Savage
We’re not leaving here without Buster, man. Leave no crash-test dummy behind!
Adam Savage
Again, as I said, my life has been about being fascinated by objects and the stories that they tell and also making them for myself, obtaining them, appreciating them and diving into them.
Adam Savage
When I finally got up to Industrial Light And Magic to work on the ‘Star Wars’ movies as a model-maker, it felt like dying and going to heaven.
Adam Savage
The ‘Mythbusters’ crew, we monitor the Discovery boards, we look for the new ideas that are being forwarded on those boards, and we keep track of what’s going on, we keep updated.
Adam Savage
Being a geek is all about learning the inventories of things.
Adam Savage Quotes
I go home at the end of the day and I rarely talk about what I did that day. So my wife’s experience is just like that of anybody else whose husband goes away to a blue collar job and comes home bruised and dirty and often proud of the work that they’re doing.
Adam Savage
We didn’t set out to be educators or even scientists, and we don’t purport that what we do is real science but we’re demonstrating a methodology by which one can engage and satisfy your curiosity.
Adam Savage Quotes
It’s sort of a mental attitude about critical thinking and curiosity. It’s about mindset of looking at the world in a playful and curious and creative way.
Adam Savage
The skeptical community is absolutely near and dear to the ‘Mythbusters’ heart and there’s no small reason that they’ve embraced us. That’s our people. That’s the way we like to think.
Adam Savage
Adam Savage Quotes
I’ve always thought something that makes you laugh, it makes you laugh because there’s a little bit of truth to it.
Adam Savage
Adam Savage Quotes
The fact is that the British Museum had a complete specimen of a dodo in their collection up until the 18th century – it was actually mummified, skin and all – but in a fit of space-saving zeal, they actually cut off the head and they cut off the feet and they burned the rest in a bonfire.
Adam Savage
I had saved a few hundred photos of dodo skeletons into my ‘Creative Projects’ folder – it’s a repository for my brain, everything that I could possibly be interested in. Any time I have an Internet connection, there’s a sluice of stuff moving into there, everything from beautiful rings to cockpit photos.
Adam Savage Quotes
I’m not a sculptor; I’m a hard-edged model maker. You give me a drawing, you give me a prop to replicate, you give me a crane, scaffolding, parts from ‘Star Wars’ – especially parts from ‘Star Wars’ – I can do this stuff all day long. It’s exactly how I made my living for 15 years.
Adam Savage Quotes
There’s this group online that I frequent. It’s a group of prop crazies just like me called the Replica Props Forum, and it’s people who trade, make and travel in information about movie props.
Adam Savage
Audiences of critical thinkers are my favorite kinds of audiences. There are jokes I tell in the show that don’t get laughs unless I am in front of an audience of critical thinkers. Put me in front of a crowd of science teachers or astronauts! The guileless aren’t our audience – it’s the critical thinkers we love.
Adam Savage Quotes
New York State is giant and has some of the most beautiful landscape on the Eastern seaboard. There is so much history in New York State, from the Erie Canal to the Catskills, the birth of American stand-up comedy.
Adam Savage
Growing up in New York, I was sort of shocked when I realized that my children are Californians. They are 14 years old, and I explain to them frequently that they will never realize the glory of a snow day. You wake up and the world says, ‘Oops, it’s too much fun to go to school, you’ve got to stay home and deal with the snow!’
Adam Savage Quotes
I’ve learned over decades of building that a deadline is a potent tool for problem-solving.
Adam Savage
Deadlines refine the mind. They remove variables like exotic materials and processes that take too long. The closer the deadline, the more likely you’ll start thinking waaay outside the box.
Adam Savage Quotes
In theory, cars are fairly simple. If they don’t start, it’s either the fuel system or the electrical system. Teach yourself about the path of each in your engine and tracing it is fairly straightforward. But at the beginning, mastering each new system seems like an unreachable shore. The car is effectively a black box.
Adam Savage Quotes
Whether it’s the experiments on ‘MythBusters’ or my earlier work in special effects for movies, I’ve regularly had to do things that were never done before, from designing complex motion-control rigs to figuring out how to animate chocolate.
Adam Savage
Lists are how I parse and manage the world.
Adam Savage Quotes
Mostly I make lists for projects. This can be daunting. Breaking something big into its constituent parts will help you organize your thoughts, but it can also force you to confront the depth of your ignorance and the hugeness of the task. That’s OK. The project may be the lion, but the list is your whip.
Adam Savage Quotes
Back when I was a professional model-maker at Industrial Light & Magic, my specialty was hard-edged construction – spaceships, miniature sets, and architectural stuff. These objects were sometimes just 12 inches across yet needed enough detail to fill a movie screen.
Adam Savage Quotes
Of course, I love tools. I also love arranging them, to the point where I came up with a name for my organizing metric: first-order retrievability.
