Keep up your enthusiasm! There is nothing more contagious than exuberant enthusiasm.

Magic is the sole science not accepted by scientists, because they can't understand it.

But then, so far as I know, I am the only performer who ever pledged his assistants to secrecy, honor and allegiance under a notarial oath.

How the early priests came into possession of these secrets does not appear, and if there were ever any records of this kind the Church would hardly allow them to become public.

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

Pickpockets either work alone or in pairs, or what is called a mob.

Anyone who believes in magic is a fool.
