As I did more of that, I realized, "Well, maybe I should do more magic."

Never stop listening to your audience.

I'm a horrible karaoke singer.

When you're a guy and meet a girl the first time, you do whatever it takes.

The key is for the audience never to know, so I have a plan B for every illusion.

I'm a big fan of the Pixar movies, and Ed Catmull, who wrote a book about his experiences producing them, talks about how it takes three or four years to get it right.

From the very beginning, I studied acting, directing, lighting, dance and movement. I didn't rely on just the magic to take place. It's a shame that a lot of magicians just rely on the trick itself and they have no other abilities. They get away with the wonder factor, and I don't think that's enough. It's great, but it's not enough.
