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
My dignity and good television - they'll never meet.
Adam Savage
I like to work fast. I despise not having the right tool or, worse, knowing I have it but not being able to find it. It's a pointless delay that wrecks my pace - and mood.

Adam Savage
I believe that inside every tool is a hammer.
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
Being a geek is all about learning the inventories of things.
Adam Savage
I believe that rules do not make us moral loving each other makes us moral.
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
The only thing that differentiates you and me from a couple of fourteen year old pyromaniacs is balistic glass!
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
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.
