I’m a hardcore libertarian – I want everything legal – but I also believe that you have the right to free association.
I came to magic absolutely hating magic on a very, very deep level.
I didn’t learn fire-eating to conquer my fears. I learned fire-eating because I desperately wanted to be in show business.
I don’t believe in vengeance. Really, when all is said and done, I probably don’t believe in punishment.
I don’t speak for all Libertarians any more than Sean Penn speaks for all Democrats.
I don’t think I’m made of the right stuff to be a politician. I think I’m made to be a loose cannon.
I get along so much better with fundamentalist Christians than I do with wishy-washy liberals, who want everyone to get along.
I have a very specific definition of censorship. Censorship must be done by the government or it’s not censorship.
I have more contact with people who consume, for lack of a better word, my product than any other performers.
I have no evidence that libertarianism leads to a better life. I just think it is morally right.
I like things matching. I have an upright bass, a drum kit and a grand piano that’s the same color. I tend to overthink things.
I like to read in the dark. I like to go into the bathtub, turn out all the lights, and in the dark, read my books.
I love the feeling of shredded wheat. I love healthy bird food with a fun-to-eat feel. Then you spray them with sugar, and I’m there.
I love the idea that horror and fear is a celebration of health and life.
I never wanted to be a magician. I never wanted to be a comedian. I never wanted to be onstage.
I think people under age 55 come to Vegas with a certain sense of irony.
I think the media spends a lot of time fooling itself.
I believe very much that the most damning thing you can say about Muslims is that you’re afraid to say anything because they’ll hurt you.
For the most part, any serious magic show is not using very much technology newer than theatrical lights.
All David Blaine is is a good-looking magician.
