believe stuff
I don't question things that go against what I believe very much. But boy, the stuff that I really want to believe, I really question a lot.
cheesy intend penn teller until
I intend to do the Penn & Teller show until they pry my cheesy magic wand from my cold dead fingers.
I do think they're going after him just because he was too successful,
house money
It's the house of a 12-year-old with a lot of money.
cameras catch couple great last safely technology underwater until
It's an idea we'd had for 15 years. But the technology did not catch up with us until the last couple of years, when we could have enough cameras safely enough underwater that it would look as great as we thought it would.
people treating
It's kind of treating people as adults. Or friends.
showing words
At least it's showing that words have power.
fact jump second
As much as I disagreed with every second of 'Fahrenheit 9/11,' the fact that it is out made me jump for joy.
feelings clay time-to-kill
If you've gotten yourself into a situation when Clay Aiken is going to talk about his feelings with you, it's time to kill yourself.
beautiful book kids
The cliche of the nerdy kid who doesn't go outside and just plays games is completely untrue. And it's also true for the nerdy kid who studies comic books and turns into this genius, and it is also true for the nerdy kid who listens to every nerdy thing that Led Zeppelin put out. That kind of obsession in a 16-year-old is not ugly. It's beautiful.
hurt believe say-anything
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.
hate magic levels
I came to magic absolutely hating magic on a very, very deep level.
fire conquer eating
I didn't learn fire-eating to conquer my fears. I learned fire-eating because I desperately wanted to be in show business.
believe punishment done
I don't believe in vengeance. Really, when all is said and done, I probably don't believe in punishment.
