I think one of the things about Donald Trump that's interesting is he lives in a rarified atmosphere where it's possible that he doesn't get enough feedback, enough people rolling their eyes at him. It's a danger more in show business than it is with wealth.
I'm a big fan of gospel music, and you cannot be a fan of rock and roll, you cannot be a fan of country western music, and you can't really be a fan of jazz without listening to a lot of music that's religious.
Everybody prefers to see a nut - they're more fascinating.
A lot of people, to attack an outspoken atheist, one of the things they'll do is say, 'You are as bad as the fundamentalist Christians.' And my answer is always, 'I hope so.'
I am a huge fan of proselytizing. I am a huge fan of speaking your mind. The only way we can share the universe... is by talking very strongly about what we believe.
Twelve magicians and two carnies have been shot dead doing the bullet catch. That's cool enough, but every night when we close our show with that trick and the loaded gun gets pointed in my face, it goes so far beyond cool. All I can think is 12 magicians, two carnies.
Technology is run by sex, because it's very important to people, both technology and sex.
I like movies that are scary, but I don't want them to be dirt dumb. I want a movie that gets my blood racing, makes me laugh, but also gives me something to think about, with maybe a little sexy thrown in. Hollywood doesn't make movies like that.
If entertainment ran grocery stores, we'd NEVER get oil cured olives or blue cheese, it would be JUST Coke.
There is no reason for the government to limit political speech.
If I were trying to avoid embarrassment, I wouldn't have stumbled my way through 'Dancing with the Stars.'
Asking someone else to do something immoral is immoral.
The fact is that violence gives you a rush.
'Psycho' is fascinating philosophically, because the point of 'Psycho' is that everything that's bad happens because of love.
Teller and I worked Renaissance Festivals and street performing - actually more real, no kidding around, Philadelphia street performing than we did Renaissance Festivals.
I will not counter the insanity of the PATRIOT Act with an overblown fear of my rights being taken away.
I think people under age 55 come to Vegas with a certain sense of irony.
I will forever stick up for Catholics and Christians in general. With a small number of very horrible exceptions, they do play by the rules.
I never wanted to be a magician. I never wanted to be a comedian. I never wanted to be onstage.
If I go out to dinner with you and you order wine, I leave. I won't be around drugs and alcohol at all.
I was about 12 when I heard my first Lenny Bruce record. He was already dead. But it changed my life and really did change the world.
How I was brought up and my imaginary friend means more to me than anything you can ever say or do.
My love of computers, besides being practical, is very direct and visceral. I love the way things look on the screen.
Bob Barr is not crazy enough for my taste.
I'm really happy with all the art that was inspired by religion, and I think I'd be tickled to little tiny pieces if art in the future was inspired by other things.
