Penn & Teller stopped doing practical jokes, and the reason is we got much too good at it.

In my private life, I'm not around any drugs or alcohol.

If you want to talk about magic, the stuff that blows me away is the stuff that's done close up.

We are only here for a little while, and our bodies belong to ourselves and no one else.

I never wanted to be a magician. I never wanted to be a comedian. I never wanted to be onstage.

One of the things that Teller and I are obsessed with, one of the reasons that we're in magic, is the difference between fantasy and reality.

Direct confrontation, direct conversation is real respect. And it's amazing how many people get that.
