The Prestige Quote

Alfred Borden : He's prograsive, he's predictable, he's boring. I mean, Milton's got success, whatever that means, and now he's scared, he won't take any risks at all. I mean, he's squandering the goodwill of the audience with these tired, second-rate tricks...
Robert Angier : They're all favorites, please...
Alfred Borden : Favorites? come on, give me something fresh, he wont even try a bloody bullet catch!
Cutter : A bullet-catch is suicide, all it takes is some smart-ass volunteer to put a button in the barrel
Alfred Borden : Fine, use a plant!
Robert Angier : You can't use plants for every trick!
Julia McCullough : There'll be no seats left for the punters! [ laughs ]
Alfred Borden : Fine, no bullet-catch, whatever, but the point is... a real magician, tries to invent something new, that other magicians are gonna scratch their heads over, you know?
Cutter : Right, then you sell it to him for a small fortune?
Alfred Borden : Alright...
Cutter : I suppose you have such a trick?
Alfred Borden : Actually, I do.
