Quotation

Man: I communicate authentically with the beyond ... and I say to your face you are nothing but a trickster. Houdini: True. I claim no otherworldly powers. On the contrary, I exalt in my own. I've spent a lifetime developing my strength...and mastering physical manipulation. I do not seek to profit from the pain and loss of the bereaved...only to entertain. == Houdini: Thought about being a surgeon. Surgeon: You? Whatever for? Houdini: To do something...useful. Surgeon: Useful? You've thrilled millions. I take my family to see you every time you play Detroit. Houdini: What you do is real, Doc. I'm a fake. Surgeon: Is it fake to make people happy? Fake to help millions escape their own problems for a while? Inspire them. I don't think that's fake. I think you're the realest person I ever met.
