Ursula Andress

I hate the word sexy.

When I go to a country, I go to flea markets, antique stores. I am always looking for something.

They offered me one cover about 10 years ago, and I said, no, I can't do it. I'm happy to cover up now.

It's going to be over soon, so I don't really have time to get busy.

If I don't have room for an item, I put it in warehouses.

I'm always shocked when I see myself because I don't recognize myself.

I was under contract to Paramount. They wanted to make me into somebody which I was not. So I got so scared and rebelled, so they threw me out of the studio.

I wanted to be a decorator. I wanted to interior design homes and do everything myself.

I suddenly find out that I'm 60, and I get shocked by the number, because I feel like I'm 20.

I never went to school. I never went to acting school because I was so scared.

I mostly gave away what I had from the James Bond movie.

I love everything that's beautiful. A lot of things.

I live in Italy. I visit my family in Switzerland.

I hate to look at myself in a mirror, and I never go and see films.

I fell from the sky. I'm a parachutist, and I missed my mark.

I don't use my body to seduce, no. I just stand there.

I don't have time to think about age. There are so many things to do.

I didn't see Dr. No for a year, but I liked it when I saw it. It was a fun movie. I don't like the Bond movies now. I hate special effects.

I couldn't live up to it. So I chose to run away.

Everything is a piece of me, a moment of my life.

Even if you have $20,000 to buy an item, you still try to get a good price at antique stores. I collect furniture, rugs, paintings, frames. It's my hobby to go around to shops and markets.

Elvis and I continued to be friends, and I saw him once or twice a year. But he was a troubled person.

Don't take anything from me because I'll track it down.

Collecting is my passion.

Collecting is my joy; it gives me great satisfaction.
