It's important to me to create the largest wonder.
The reason I can give wonder is that I feel wonder about the world: the stars, a tree, my body - everything.
I have a policy of not saying anything negative about anything another magician does.
If I produce a 450-pound Bengal tiger, it's going to create a lot more wonder than if I produce a rabbit.
When I was in college, being a magician was not the classiest thing to be. It was like being a folk singer before Bob Dylan.
