Bad spellers of the world untie!
Adam Savage
Again, like 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
I'm obsessed with the form of a toolbox. The idea of a portable kit that has everything you might need ignites something inside me. It's like Batman's utility belt.
Adam Savage
Don't work for fools. It's not worth it. Getting paid less to work for people you like and believe in is much better for you (and your career) in the long run.
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
The explosions, like the urban legends, are a great way of bringing people in to watch, because it's really fun, and you know we're always going to give you a satisfying ending.
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
After all those years of doing remote detonations, where we just push a button and something explodes, to actually see a nice big fat line of black smoke heading toward something that will blow up is very satisfying.
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
I learned at an early age that I could make the things that I wanted. That's a very powerful thing to realize as a kid. LEGOs were a key part of that.
Adam Savage
I am now standing in a mixture of cooling fluid, gasoline, and cola.
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
I find that your basic Internet chat board is way too vitriolic for my taste.
Adam Savage
If I haven't had any long term psychological side effects from all the things I've already done on this show, this isn't gonna hurt much more.
Adam Savage
Sometimes my brain writes a check that reality can't cash.
Adam Savage
Technology is usually there to let some process go on hidden in the background. For us on 'MythBusters,' we're always trying to make the process apparent. So, we have learned to try and never rely on a technological solution when an analogue one is in front of us.
Adam Savage
The best-case scenario is that the glass shatters in my face! How do you think that makes me feel?
Adam Savage
My dignity and good television - they'll never meet.
Adam Savage
If I had any dignity, that would have been humiliating.
Adam Savage
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.
