In my time as Archbishop of Canterbury I've seen a growing sense of unity and mission.

When I did my first few television specials, my illusions were so advanced that it took a couple of years before the other illusionists could even figure out what I was doing, let alone try to imitate me.

I took a little break after 'The Palace of Illusions' to clear my head.

I believe in illusion - I don't believe in magic.

I don't have any illusions anymore. The illusion that rock 'n' roll could change anything - I don't believe that. I've changed.

I even had the illusion, for a very short time, that I could become a medium pace bowler.

Don't part with your illusions. When they are gone, you may still exist, but you have ceased to live.

When a magician lets you notice something on your own, his lie becomes impenetrable.

What cursed spirit of falsehood moveth priests to close themselves within stone walls for all their life, since Christ commanded all his apostles and priests to go into all the world, and to preach the Gospel?

I am shy to admit that I have followed the advice given all those years ago by a wise archbishop to a bewildered young man: that moments of unbelief 'don't matter,' that if you return to a practice of the faith, faith will return.
