About Me

"You never understood why we did this. The audience knows the truth: The world is simple, miserable, solid all the way through... But if you can fool them -- even for a second -- then you can make them wonder... and then you got to see something very special. You really don’t know? It was the look on their faces..." --The Prestige

"I've been fighting these high-hat Ivy League pricks my whole life." --The Aviator
