I don't have to be that gentleman [baddest man on the planet] anymore. Now I have to be this guy. And in order to be this guy, I have to be smiling, I have to be gregarious, I have to be entertaining, and I have to be friendly. This is what my career needs now. I've adapted. But 20 years from now, I may need a different persona.
