This week's Quote of the Week is from Glen Burnie resident Joshua Schmid, 15, who said seeing Harry Potter when he was 6 years old inspired him to puruse magic.
“I think the Harry Potter series helped spike my interest in magic,” Joshua said. “Magic under the right circumstances can have an emotional connection through the magician. I’ve had folks say to me that my tricks have made their day or made them feel happy. It is an escape from reality.”
