Adam West Quotes: 'Family Guy' Mayor Vs Batman

Adam West's Top Ten Quotes & Sayings

Bryan  Mckinley
The best quotes Adam West has offered up mainly focus on two things: There was the time he was this little known superhero named Batman and he plays a little character on a slightly popular show called Family Guy. Okay, so maybe those two things are a little bit more popular than I have let on. West doesn't let on to which one he liked doing more, but I think it's fair to say that everybody knows him as Batman. Here are the top ten Adam West quotes and sayings.

Adam West Quotes #1 - On getting typecasted after doing Batman

"I'd go in to have meetings about different role that were more serious or substantial than what one might have considered Batman to have been. They'd usually wind up saying, 'Batman can't be in bed with Faye Dunaway.'"

Adam West Quotes #2 - On being Batman

"Regardless of how rough the identity factor has made it to go on, looking at the balance sheet, I'm grateful for the Bat. It did more for me than against me. It gave money, an international name, the kind of recognition that has allowed me to at least disprove what it caused. That may be tougher than starting from scratch, I don't know."

Adam West Quotes #3 - On not getting to play Batman in Tim Burton's 1989 movie

"I cried for an hour, but then I was okay. I wanted it! I don't know. I figured that's their business and they have a film in mind. I've already done it. I've done my Batman."

Adam West Quotes #4 - So pretty

"Of course, I don't like make-up. I'm too pretty!"

Adam West Quotes #5 - On playing himself as the mayor in Family Guy

"I mean, 'Family Guy' is totally absurd. But I enjoy doing the nutty stuff."

Adam West Quotes #6 - On the Batmobile

"Oh, I've driven it, yes. Many, many times. Would you like to drive it?"

Adam West Quotes #7 - His favorite Mayor West scene and line.

"I'm partial to the cat launcher scene. Oh, and I love taffy. Mmmm... I love taffy."

Adam West Quotes #8 - How he got involved in Family Guy

"Seth [MacFarlane] and I had worked on another project before, and he just called me and asked me if I wanted to take part. He and I share the same comic sensibilities. He also knew that I thought funny."

Adam West Quotes #9 - Click it or ticket.

"There's no Bat gadget better than a seatbelt for safety."

Adam West Quotes #10 - On his Batman costume

"It brought me an occasional reward. The tights were itchy, and it was really, really hot. Believe me, it was 180 degrees under that cowl. But it was magic. I'd pull it on and I'd think, let's go out and play Batman & Robin! It's the only way you could get at it, to be childlike and remember those times."
