I don't have a formula to pass on. I always did it my own way. Even today, I hold my independence close. It's what's most precious to me. Passion. Risk. Tenacity. Consistency. This is my professional history.

I dress in my 'uniform,' or my own dress code, which reflects my personal method and work ethic. My belief is that my plain T-shirt - I have about 40 of them - or blue sweater helps focus others' attention on me and on what I say.

This is the problem with the world today: Nobody wants to take risks, to risk being themselves.

There are always protests, whether you do something good or bad. Even if you do something beneficial, people say you do it because it's advertising.

I did do my own stunts.

The essence of style is a simple way of saying something complex.
