I Have Always Been Interested In Pushing

To Make [parents] Happy, I Went To Fordham University For Three Weeks, While At The Same Time Running Ads In Variety, "magician-actor David Copperfield."

My Dreams Are My Dress Rehearsals For My Future.

For Me, I Was Watching Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire, Orson Welles, Victor Fleming Movies, And I Said, "i Want To Tell Stories Like That. I Want To Move People Like That. But I'm Good At Magic, So What Am I Going To Do?" So I Started Using Magic For The Right Reasons - To Get The Girl.

I Was Teaching Magic At Nyu When I Was 16.

When I Was A Kid, People Wanted To Be An Astronaut. Today, Kids Want To Be Famous, And That's Totally The Wrong Approach. You Have To Have Authenticity In What You're Doing. You Have To Really Care About The Core Message Of What You're Saying, And Then Everything Else Will Fall Into Place.
