We are all capable of infinitely more than we believe. We are stronger and more resourceful than we know, and we can endure much more than we think we can.

Magic's an art where you use slight of hand or illusion to create wonder. And I was just intrigued with that idea.

I'd like to bring magic back to the place it used to be 100 years ago.

My mother encouraged it so much. She was so supportive. Even if as a kid, I would do the dumbest trick, which now that I look back on some things, she would love it, she would say that's amazing, or if I'd make the ugliest drawing, she would hang it up. She was amazing.

It was just like a digital fixation with cards and math and science and then I started to look at images of great magicians from Houdini down the line.

I'd go to Coney Island to hang out, and I saw a magician doing a rope trick on the boardwalk. I was fascinated. I guess that's how it started.
