More quotes by Chris Hardwick
We're not in an information age anymore. We're in the information management age.
Chris Hardwick
I love the South. Although I grew up primarily in Memphis, my family moved around a ton when I was a kid. I guess I never stayed in one place long enough to pick up the accent, but I definitely identify as a Southerner.
Chris Hardwick
No human ever became interesting by not failing. The more you fail and recover and improve, the better you are as a person. Ever meet someone who's always had everything work out for them with zero struggle? They usually have the depth of a puddle. Or they don't exist.
Chris Hardwick
If you do a joke that's really old, then what happens is people on Reddit and Twitter just go, 'Real original, you're just doing old jokes!' But bands do it all the time.

I played tournament chess from fifth grade up into high school.

Nerdists, unlike nerds, tend to be creators as much as consumers. They're creative consumers.
Chris Hardwick
There are certain parts of a classic nerd's brain that can destroy that person - obsessing about things to the detriment of everything else in your life. But those are the same tools that you can use to turn everything around.
Chris Hardwick
Comment threads are the new therapy for people. They just go and post the worst things they can think of because they feel bad, and then other people start attacking them, and then they attack back.
Chris Hardwick
I think the mistake a lot of people make with new media is they just focus on one thing. But any one thing - just doing podcasts or just having a website or just doing television - isn't enough anymore.
Chris Hardwick
I do seem like the kind of guy who'd be obsessive about Rubik's Cubes.
Chris Hardwick
The worst day ever was when I found out my grandfather was going to die.
Chris Hardwick
Steve Martin said that philosophy is good for comedy because it screws up your thinking just enough, and I agree with that. Being forced to see life's metadata is good training for looking for interesting angles on a topic.
Chris Hardwick
If you can build your career around your passions, then you're winning in life that's one of the best things you can ask for.
Chris Hardwick
There's a lot of laughing on a horror movie set. They're magical in that way.
Chris Hardwick
Trying to make strangers laugh is crazy and more than a little narcissistic.
Chris Hardwick
No matter what tricks you use or what decisions you make, go easy on yourself as someone who's on a never-ending quest for improvement.
Chris Hardwick
I think some of what makes it a good podcast is that it's organic. It doesn't feel forced. If we can say anything about ours, it's that we're not faking it at all. We're genuinely interested in the people that we're talking to.
Chris Hardwick
If I wasn't acting or doing stand-up, I would be in animation. Or if I had the discipline I might studies physics.
Chris Hardwick
With stand-up, there's a little bit of an exaggerated reality because things have to be manipulated to create comedy, to create jokes.
Chris Hardwick
The nerdist movement is less about consumers there is a large contingent that are creative nerdists instead of consumers.
