More quotes by Hugh Hefner

If you don't encourage healthy sexual expression in public, you get unhealthy sexual expression in private. If you attempt to suppress sex in books, magazines, movies and even everyday conversation, you aren't helping to make sex more private, just more hidden. You're keeping sex in the dark. What we've tried to do is turn on the lights.

Life is too short to be living somebody else's dream.
Hugh Hefner

Living in the moment, thinking about the future, and staying connected to the past: That's what makes me feel whole.

If Playboy ever loses its editorial balls, then it will deserve to be knocked over by a younger, more vigorous magazine in the coming generation. But that won't happen so long as I'm alive, I can promise you that.
Hugh Hefner
Image
Power has not corrupted me. I have not become jaded. I wake up every day well aware of my good fortune, loving the work I do, loving my life, realizing that life is a crapshoot and I'm on a roll second to none.

You really don't create an authoritarian society unless you control the personal choices including the sexual choices of the people.
Hugh Hefner

I remain very much connected to my childhood... I have never been too jaded or too sophisticated.
