Paul Harris

“Don't just do something, stand there.”

“Astonishment is the purest form of thought.”

“The true secret of an astonishing effect is not to be found in the method. The true secret is in the effect.”

“We are in the business of creating memories, not just fooling people.”

“A good trick is a puzzle, but a great trick is a poem.”

“What you're trying to do is create a moment of wonder and astonishment.”

“The method is not the trick.”

“Magic is not about deception, but about a shared experience of the impossible.”

“Your character is the invisible thread that ties all your magic together.”

“The pause is the most powerful tool a magician has.”

“Let the effect breathe. Give the audience a moment to feel the astonishment.”
