If I ever become an Evil Overlord,

  2. My ventilation ducts will be too small to crawl through.

Or with motion detectors, cameras and a gas flood system (how many heros
wear gas masks…)
  

  8. When I've captured my adversary and he says, "Look, before you kill
     me, will you at least tell me what this is all about?"  I'll say, "No."
     and shoot him.

Shoot him and THEN say ‘No’

 12. I will not interrogate my enemies in the inner sanctum --
     a small hotel well outside my borders will work just as well.

Build a Lubyanka equivalent (sp)…  keep it close, but not too close.

 14. I will not waste time making my enemy's death look like an accident --
     I'm not accountable to anyone and my other enemies wouldn't believe it.

Or make it such an IMPROBABLE accident that everyone KNOWS who did it...
Crushed by a Gargoyle while swimming off Beachy Head... Accidentally
stabbed himself 27 times... etc etc

 22. I will never utter the sentence "But before I kill you, there's
     just one thing I want to know."

Or "What could possibly go wrong" or "Nothing can stop me now"
