You have to count on living every single day in a way you believe will make you feel good about your life - so that if it were over tomorrow, you'd be content with yourself.

[on her looks] I had ordered long legs, but they never arrived. My eyes are weird too, one is gray and the other is green. I have a crooked smile and my nose looks like a ski slope. No, I would not win a Miss contest.

After I had my first child, I stopped breastfeeding early because I had been told that there was a possibility that I might star in Die Dornenvögel (1983), which I wanted more than life itself. I went to do the screen test and everything went great until we [Richard Chamberlain and I] did the love scene. I had stopped feeding for three weeks and unexpectedly my milk came in! I lifted myself up in my pink 1930s negligee, and it's a wet T-shirt contest! I looked up and it was just terrible. There was a big puddle of white milk all over his bare chest. I mean a puddle. This was a serious incident. His reaction was not good. You just say, "What can you do?".

[In 2015, on her long successful career following her big break in the James Bond film Leben und sterben lassen (1973)] It wasn't really hard to get roles directly after that. I met Renée Valente, who was a casting director at the time. And she said, "If you can lose your English accent, you would do very well in America." I came to America with no work permit, no agent, nowhere really to live, and within six weeks I got my first role. I became labeled as the "queen of the mini-series" because I did one mini-series after another. Basically, I worked consistently and usually with a different American accent every time.

About artist Robert McGinnis, who did a poster for Seymour's film Leben und sterben lassen (1973) where she was a bikini-clad redhead: A great movie poster will get everyone’s attention - and he certainly did that with the beautiful woman they now claim is me. I think it’s a great poster. But at the time I saw it I thought, It’s a shame I’m not on it. I thought I was in this movie.
