I try to be straightforward and honest with my kids, and I believe nothing beats good old hard work.

As a kid I was always a bit of a clown, a performer.

I'm pretty good at gardening. It consumes my time, and it feels like I'm doing something constructive.

It is good to be in front of the lens to appreciate more being behind the lens.

I pack a toothbrush, toothpaste, and deodorant. That's it. I don't have the time or patience for anything else. I'm a natural kind of guy. I don't style my hair - never learned how.

James Bond is quite serious about his drinks and clothing and cigarettes and food and all that sort of thing. There is nothing wry or amused about James Bond.
