I started out as a juggler, so I know what it means to spend eight hours a day, seven days a week practicing something that people just dismiss with a wave of hand.

For the most part, any serious magic show is not using very much technology newer than theatrical lights.

God works in mysterious, inefficient, and breathtakingly cruel ways

We celebrities are desperate pigs.

Better to be uneducated than educated by your government.

Believing there is no God means the suffering I've seen in my family and indeed all the suffering in the world isn't caused by any omniscient, omnipresent, omnipotent force that isn't bothered to help or is just testing us, but rather something we all may be able to help others with in the future. No God means the possibility of less suffering in the future.

I came to magic absolutely hating magic on a very, very deep level.
