I guess I kind of realized that my whole life isn't one giant press junket. I don't have to be smiling all the time and always have the perfect answer.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm not that great with press sometimes.
I just never, in my career, got into doing a lot of press.
Facing the press is not easy, but because you have to go, you have to try to take a lot of positive things for yourself from these face-to-face meetings.
Doing press is like eating at McDonald's: while it's going on it's vaguely enjoyable - you're seduced by your own vanity and taking yourself rather seriously - but immediately afterwards you feel sick.
I've been dealing with the press for 45 years. You need a very long spoon to sup with them. While you are always grateful, they are like badly trained dogs. They smile and wag and bite your arm off.
Wooing the press is an exercise roughly akin to picnicking with a tiger. You might enjoy the meal, but the tiger always eats last.
I'm not one who goes for the 'all press is good press' dictum.
I don't smile a lot in my pictures. I'm always so... grim.
I never get tired of smiling. I'm just the kind of guy who likes to smile.
I never mind doing press; it's never bothered me.
