There is something cheap about magic that works just because it is magic.

It's very exciting to take magic into a new direction, whereas a lot of times magic comes from a place of sort of ego, like, 'Look what I can do that you can't do.' It kind of comes across that way a lot, and you're always trying to challenge the magician; you're always trying to figure out how the magician is doing it.

I am a fan of magic and fantasy, particularly when it's grounded in reality.

Magic, historically, has been a man doing tricks with no wider story behind it.

You have to learn certain skills to present magic.

I had a magic kit. I never really followed through on it, but I had my phase of wanting to do it, sure.

I'm not a big fan of doing it because I get really frustrated because I can't do any of the tricks, but I love to watch magic.

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

I did magic all my life from the time I was 12, and I like to tap into the magic from history.
