The great trouble with magicians is the fact that they believe when they have bought a certain trick or piece of apparatus, and know the method of procedure, that they are full-fledged mystifiers.

A magician is only an actor - an actor pretending to be a magician.

What the eyes sees, the ear hears, and the mind believes.

Only one man ever betrayed my confidence, and that only in a minor matter.

Anyone who believes in magic is a fool.
