Magicians are the most honest people in the world; they tell you they're gonna fool you, and then they do it.
It’s in the very trickery that it pleases me. But show me how the trick is done, and I have lost my interest therein.
I discovered at the age of six that everything was a phony, worked with mirrors. Since then, I've always wanted to be a magician.
If you go to a magic show, you don't want to see logic.
If everybody knows all the tricks, it's no more magic.
I'm no wizard, and I don't like being thought of in that light at all. I think of a wizard as being some sort of magician or something, doing something on the sly or something, and I don't want to be thought of in that way.
I know magicians and I know magic and I say this: all magicians lie and this one more than most.
