• My fave routine is The Roller Coaster. First of all it's a great way to get into a card trick, without stating it's a card trick. The routine is so brilliantly structured as to at first, intrigue, psychologically unsettle and then blow away your audience. An extra bonus is that it will hopefully create a welcome respite from bloody invisible deck routines. Worth the price of the book.

• That's how I do this life sometimes by making the ordinary just like magic and just like a card trick and just like a mirror and just like disappearing. Every Indian learns how to be a magician and learns how to misdirect attention and the dark hand is always quicker than the white eye and no matter how close you get to my heart you will never find out my secrets and I'll never tell you and I'll never show you the same trick twice. I'm traveling heavy with illusions.

I suppose that part of this mania for staying is due to a fear that, if I go, something good will happen and I'll miss it. Somebody might do card tricks, or shoot somebody else.

• Hay quienes, por supuesto, afirman que debemos renunciar a la libertad a cambio del progreso económico. Pues bien, perdónenme, pero cualquiera que intente venderles esa frase no es mejor que un trilero. Una cosa cada día más clara es que libertad y progreso van de la mano. En todo el mundo en desarrollo, la gente rechaza el socialismo porque ve que no da poder a la gente, sino que la empobrece.

  Ronald Reagan
