So, it's a quiet afternoon in the office and I work in one of those 'wonderful' places that has walls littered with so called inspirational and thought-provoking quotations etc.
I figured I'd paraphrase some of them to make them more relevant for magicians.... why, I don't know, like I said, it's a quiet afternoon.
Spectators are not interruptions of our magic - they are the purpose of it. We are not doing them a favour by performing for them - they are doing us a favour by giving us the opportunity to do so.
Everything starts with the audience.
If we view our magic as so different from everybody else's then that's what it will be.
Any more for any more?

You don't have to be mad to do magic...
But, statistically, you probably are socially subnormal if you've considered it!
