Here are some Best Quotes from the movie “The Prestige”:
“Every great magic trick consists of three parts or acts. The first part is called the Pledge. The magician shows you something ordinary: a deck of cards, a bird, or a man. He shows you this object. Perhaps he asks you to inspect it to see if it is indeed real, unaltered, and normal. But of course… it probably isn’t.” – Cutter
“The second act is called the Turn. The magician takes the ordinary something and makes it do something extraordinary. Now you’re looking for the secret… but you won’t find it, because of course you’re not really looking. You don’t really want to know. You want to be fooled.” – Cutter
“But you wouldn’t clap yet. Because making something disappear isn’t enough; you have to bring it back. That’s why every magic trick has a third act, the hardest part, the part we call The Prestige.” – Cutter
“Are you watching closely?” – Cutter
“The only way to win is to not play the game.” – Borden
“The man who said he could see through walls was blinded by his own ambition.” – Borden
“The secret impresses no one. The trick you use it for is everything.” – Borden
“The show is not about the magic. It’s about the secrets.” – Borden
“The only difference between science and magic is that science is explainable.” – Fallon
“I’ll be the first to admit that I’ve always been obsessed with magic. But the reason I became a magician was because I wanted to be a scientist. And I wanted to study the impossible.” – Angier
“I’m sorry, Mr. Angier, but you’re not the only one who’s suffered.” – Borden
“I think I know what you’re doing, but I don’t know how you’re doing it.” – Angier
“I have to believe in a world outside my own mind. I have to believe that my actions still have meaning, even if I can’t remember them. I have to believe that when my eyes are closed, the world’s still there. Do I believe the world’s still there? Is it still out there?… Yeah. We all need mirrors to remind ourselves who we are. I’m no different.” – Angier
“You’ll get your secrets. But you’re gonna have to work for them.” – Borden
