Magic is something that seems like it goes against how the wo rld works and it is us magicians who have t he privilege to demonstrate it.
There are no tricks in magic, o nly wonder.
Magic is not contained in the tricks t ricks or illusions. illusions. It is in the smile and laughter of an individual thinking, for a brief moment - that anything is possible.
Think, for a moment, about what makes magic special. A coin disappears, and for a split second, we're children again. It isn't a magician's skills or top hat that captivates people: it is the moment of true astonishment. Most moments of true astonishment are brief intervals right after an effect ends and before our rational adult minds apply logic. In the split second between these processes: a moment of childlike wonder.
