Adam Whitney Savage Quotes
- I have concluded through careful empirical analysis and much thought that someone is looking out for me, keeping track of what I think of things, forgiving me when I do less than I ought, giving me strength to shoot for more than I think I’m capable of. I believe they know everything I do and think, and they still love me, and I’ve concluded, after careful consideration, that this person keeping score is me.
- I am a champion of one notch above mediocrity.
- [his reaction to being caught in a flash fire where he lost an eyebrow and some of his arm hair] Am I missing an eyebrow?

- My advice is keep your lips away from the spinning things.
- My dignity and good television – they’ll never meet.

- I reject your reality and substitute my own.
