• My private tragedy, which cannot, and indeed should not, be anybody's concern, is that I had to abandon my natural idiom, my untrammeled, rich, and infinitely docile Russian tongue for a second-rate brand of English, devoid of any of those apparatuses–the baffling mirror, the black velvet backdrop, the implied associations and traditions–which the native illusionist, frac-tails flying, can magically use to transcend the heritage in his own way.

• El Ilusionista es el contador de historias en muchos sentidos. Los símbolos se convierten en su obsesión. No se trata sólo de crear una trama, también hay que lidiar con el tema. Hoy en día tenemos muchos personajes y mucha acción, pero es difícil sentarse quieto y meditar realmente sobre el significado, las visiones del mundo, los conceptos, incluso las ideologías. Hago que mi Ilusionista haga lo que yo he tenido que hacer, a menudo con abundantes tropiezos y frustraciones. Creo que su verdadera humanidad proviene de su condición de artista: su creatividad es lo que le convierte en un hombre.

• To deceive gracefully is the very essence of social life. One must start by deceiving oneself, and make a lifelong practice of deceiving others; if one does it well enough, in time one might even become an artist, the greatest illusionists of all.
