Penn Jillette

I will not counter the insanity of the PATRIOT Act with an overblown fear of my rights being taken away.

I like things matching. I have an upright bass, a drum kit and a grand piano that's the same color. I tend to overthink things.

The only secret of magic is that I'm willing to work harder on it than you think it's worth.

England was full of words I'd never heard before - streaky bacon, short back and sides, Belisha beacon, serviettes, high tea, ice-cream cornet.

Hospice means end-of-life care. The admission ticket is a diagnosis from a doctor that you have six months or less to live.

People say, 'Where do you live?' and I say that theoretically, I live in London, but basically that's just where I go to change my suitcase. Otherwise, I'm always flying somewhere.
