The deception quote.. I agree that's how it seems to be sometimes, but not how it should be. Also.. 'We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars'. I love Oscar Wilde. I think The Nightingale and the Rose, and The Happy Prince were majorly important in the construction of my personality. Awesome that you like him.
Derren Brown is great at what he does. I've also seen him interviewed about other topics, atheism etc. He's a really smart guy. Have you seen his mind tricks?
