Kleinmann: Uh, I've... I've never paid for sex in my life.
Prostitute: Oh, you just think you haven't.
[laughs]
Kleinman: I don't know enough to be incompetent.
Kleinman: A deranged person is supposed to have the strength of ten men. I have the strength of one small boy... with polio.

Kleinmann: What better way to - to spend the rest of my life than - than to help you with - with all those wonderful illusions of yours!
Roustabout: It's true. Everybody loves his illusions.
Magician: Loves them. They need them. Like they need the air.
