These are really solid suggestions with great examples. The only thing I can think of to add at the moment are a few quotes:

- “The difference between screwing around and science is writing it down.” ― Adam Savage (via Good Reads)

- "Divide and Conquer" ― Many



I think that Good Reads version is a slight misquote. Adam said "the only difference...".


Great catch!

There is reddit post with imgur link, both from Adam Savage himself that clarifies the correct quote:

"remember kids, the only difference between screwing around and science is writing it down" - ballistics expert Alex Jason

They are both easily findable when searching the correct quote, its a good story. sources: https://www.reddit.com/r/mythbusters/comments/3wgqgv/the_ori... https://imgur.com/1h3K2TT/
