We are thrilled to work with Fun and share the same sentiment that we want do some really exciting and innovative things for the magic community.
I like to say magic is the world's second oldest profession, a mystical and often awe-inspiring spectacle that, throughout the ages, has blended superstition, trickery and religion.
Magic is the oldest part of the show business profession. It can now be used as a forward-thinking tool to build a child's confidence. It has been an amazing part in many entertainers' lives, including Steve Martin and the late Johnny Carson.
Everything that I spent my entire life dedicated to, which is this art of mentalism, of magic... I don't see it and feel it and experience it like I first did when I was getting involved in this art. I try to look at it as a spectator but unless I get amnesia I still can't overlook that. I can appreciate the performance but I would love to be fooled.
When the mind, body, and spirit work together, I believe anything is possible.
To me, it's never about the trick. I don't care about how something works. I care about how people feel when they watch it. You know, that - that connection - that emotional connection is true magic.
I worked 18 years to become an overnight success. Now MagicPlace.com will short circuit that process for people.
I've been a live performer longer than I've been a television performer. For me, live is where it's at.

I want to ride my motorcycle up the side of the Luxor to the light and vanish.
I think if you would have cut Houdini with a knife, blood wouldn't come out, PR would.
I am a very emotional person.
No one has the ability, that I'm aware of, to do anything supernatural, psychic, talk to the dead.
Life is but a series of memories you make.
