I collect memorable quotes. With the search tool not working, I am uncertain whether there is already a thread on this somewhere else. So . . . I apologize if this has been done before. What is your favorite quote about magic or mentalism?
Here is one of mine: "Magic makes a straw a mountain by artifice; again, it weaves a mountain like a straw. It makes ugly things beautiful by means of sleight; it makes beautiful things ugly by means of opinion. The work of magic is this, that it breathes and at every breath transforms realities." - Rumi, Persian Poet-Mystic |

I believe it was attributed to Channing Pollock and it's my all-time favorite quote about magic, mentalism and life in general: "A critic is a legless man who teaches running."
