More quotes by Adam Savage
It's sort of a mental attitude about critical thinking and curiosity. It's about mindset of looking at the world in a playful and curious and creative way.
Adam Savage
Growing up in New York, I was sort of shocked when I realized that my children are Californians.

I'm always going to be making costumes. It's one of the ways I relax my brain. In addition to the pleasure of having the piece, there is a deep and abiding pleasure for me assembling something in my head - learning to know something in its totality in my head, and then putting together all the constituent parts into a cohesive whole.
Adam Savage
I've learned over decades of building that a deadline is a potent tool for problem-solving.
Adam Savage
I would have to say that looked like it hurt.
Adam Savage
I think one of the defining moments of adulthood is the realization that nobody's going to take care of you. That you have to do the heavy lifting while you're here. And when you don't, well, you suffer the consequences.
Adam Savage
Lists are how I parse and manage the world.
Adam Savage
I think at this point, there's a certain bizarre chemistry between Jamie [Hyneman] and I that we can't ignore a lot of the mechanics of, that we're quite aware of. Half of it is absolutely genuine, and half of it is us playing around with that fact.
Adam Savage
The coolest toys don't have to be bought they can be built. In fact, sometimes the only way they'll ever exist is if you make them yourself.
Adam Savage
The difference between screwing around and science is writing it down.
Adam Savage
I am now standing in a mixture of cooling fluid, gasoline, and cola.
Adam Savage
There's few things that get you over your own crap more than working hard.
Adam Savage
