David Copperfield

I find revealing the secrets of magic quite reprehensible.

Magicians lose the opportunity to experience a sense of wonder.

I try to help people realize their dreams by using magic to tell stories that educate, move, and inspire.

Dreams are illusions, and we can't let go of them because we would be dead.

We all possess the need to dream.

I was an only child. We were so poor, my parents and I had the same room.

You have to learn certain skills to present magic.

What I've tried to do in my stage magic is to take a trick and give it an emotional hook.

I am fortunate to have the resources to have many methods to do each of my illusions.

But when I go off stage I don't have a deck of cards with me all the time.

You can feel better about yourself in a very short period of time depending on the kind of magic that you are doing.

When you're a guy and meet a girl the first time, you do whatever it takes.
