People assume because I have a very thick skin that I don't have feelings. I don't, for the most part. But occasionally, I'm capable of great acts of charity. I tend to do it quietly.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think secretly I've realized after my time on the planet that I have no control over what people feel about me or need from me, so I just have a more laid-back approach in my apologies.
I like to pretend that I'm a tough guy. It's kind of an admission of defeat if I have to ask for help - or even kindness. But if it doesn't come, at some point I snap and demand it.
I have always been a person who is extremely comfortable in my skin. I have always just been myself in all these years on the public platform.
It's because I have no sense of shame that I'm always willing to give things a go: I've ridden horses naked into the sea, I've climbed rocks, all kinds of things.
People ask if I walk around and pinch myself. Yes, I do.
I have often wished I had time to cultivate modesty... but I am too busy thinking about myself.
I do shamefully little for charity, and I always talk about it when I do.
In this business you have to develop a thick skin, but I'm always going to feel everything. It's my nature.
I am not a particularly thick-skinned person.
I'm trying to get a thicker skin. I like to be aware of people's perceptions of me, but when you put it as a priority, as a means to judging your worth, that's when it can be dangerous.
