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.

I'm a huge Dallas Mavs fan. What I love about Dirk Nowitzki is he has just as much talent as everyone else, if not more, and he never toots his own horn. He's this silent warrior.

Shaft was a pop culture figure along t he lines of, I guess, Dirty Harry - except that he wasn't as much of a racist. So yeah, I was always a fan.

It is hardly surprising that women concentrate on the way they look instead of what is in their minds since not much has been put in their minds to begin with.
