I found that whatever interested me in life, I could pretty much pick up the phone, call somebody, and all of a sudden be in the middle of it.
Bo Derek

I played a definite part in it. I guess the things that I played in films and the way the nudity and the love scenes were handled were really different.
Bo Derek

Bo Derek
Image
I think a lot of my girlfriends growing up gave themselves up to any boy who paid attention to them. I think young women now are a lot more particular. They pick and choose.
Bo Derek
Image
I found my love when I was 17-years-old and my love is one hundred percent honest. We've never had any ugly, rocky things to overcome.
Bo Derek
Image
I hate to run. I never, ever run.
