Playboy was founded on the notion that nice girls like sex too.

I am in very good health. I've never felt better.
Hugh Hefner

I've nailed more women than I could count... at least I think they were women

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.

The phenomena there is something in us that on the one hand bonds us with like people but somehow makes us suspicious of other people.
Hugh Hefner
Image
Life is bittersweet. Inside our heads, if we're lucky, we're the same kids as we were when we were young.
Hugh Hefner
Image
Playboy isn't like the downscale, male bonding, beer-swilling phenomena that is being promoted now by (some men's magazines). My whole notion was the romantic connection between male and female.

In many ways, Im younger than I was 20 years ago.
Hugh Hefner

After all the Puritans came to America to escape from persecution and then turned around and started persecuting other people. So I understand that conflict that we have related to play and pleasure and sexuality. And I think what has made my life worthwhile is trying to deal with some of those questions.

My life is an open book. With illustrations.
Hugh Hefner
Image
I think the Playboy philosophy is very, very connected to the American dream.
Hugh Hefner
Image
The major civilizing force in the world is not religion, it is sex.
Hugh Hefner

If it was wrong to persecute heterosexuals in a homosexual society, then the reverse was wrong, too.

My parents are wonderful people and they instilled in me an idealism for which I'm grateful.
