Quote #1
SYLVIA: Mr. Bond, I suppose you wouldn't care to...um...raise the limit?

As we soon learn, sex is a game for Bond. He enjoys toying with the women he's interested in as much as—maybe even more than—the actual catch.
Quote #3
M: He was checking an inquiry from the Americans. They'd been complaining about massive interference with their Cape Canaveral rockets. They think it comes from the Jamaica area. Does "toppling" mean anything to you?
Maybe the recurring theme here should be "bored dudes." Bond gets his jollies pursuing women. Dr. No excites himself by trying to overthrow the balance of world powers.
