More quotes by Penn Jillette
I never wanted to be a magician. I never wanted to be a comedian. I never wanted to be onstage.
Penn Jillette
I believe the fast track to atheism is reading the Bible. I've read it three times all the way through. It's a big part of our culture, a big part of our history. I don't just read things I agree with.

You have in Vegas the most heterogeneous audience you're gonna get anywhere in the country. In Boston, Chicago, Miami, you know who goes to the theater. In Vegas, you have people who only see one theater show a year, and it's in Vegas.

TV networks are dying. The death throes of religion give us jihads. The death throes of television give us reality shows.
Penn Jillette

Penn Jillette
We have to fight for the freedom to be stupid, and smoking is one of the best ways to fight for your freedom, to be just as stupid as you can be.
Penn Jillette
We all have friends we love dearly that couldn't pass for human in a strict Turing test.
Penn Jillette
Mentally ill people come from all belief systems.

Penn Jillette
Thou shalt not take anything on faith
Penn Jillette
There is this tremendous amount of arrogance and hubris, where somebody can look at something for five minutes and dismiss it. Whether you talk about gaming or 20th century classical music, you can't do it in five minutes. You can't listen to 'The Rite of Spring' once and understand what Stravinsky was all about.
Penn Jillette
Performers have the right to say what they want to, and anyone paying money has the right to accept or reject the art and entertainment that's available.
Penn Jillette
Technology adds nothing to art.

Read everything and be kind.
