Everybody prefers to see a nut - they're more fascinating.

The fact that the majority wants something good does not give them the right to use force on the minority that don't want to pay for it. If you have to use a gun, it's not really a very good idea. Democracy without respect for individual rights sucks. It's just ganging up on the weird kid, and I'm always the weird kid.

The skills that we have are the actual magic skills - not the performing skills. We have to separate those. But the actual skills that make the tricks work, we don't get to use again.

We aren't people who believe that just because we're performers our opinions on everything need to be known.

I think voting for the lesser of two evils in game theory always leads to more evil.

I intend to do the Penn & Teller show until they pry my cheesy magic wand from my cold dead fingers.

The highest ideals are human intelligence, creativity and love. Respect these above all.
