Hugh Hefner
Being attacked by right-wing Christians did not bother me. Being attacked by liberal feminists did.
Hugh Hefner
I was fortunate enough to be raised in a, in a very romantic time in terms of music, and the music itself simple reflected the much more romantic time.
Hugh Hefner
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.
Hugh Hefner
I dreamed impossible dreams. And the dreams turned out beyond anything I could possibly imagine. You know, from my point of view, I'm the luckiest cat on the planet.

Hugh Hefner
In my own words, I played some significant part in changing the social-sexual values of our time. I had a lot of fun in the process.
Hugh Hefner

Hugh Hefner
I have been married twice, and those were not the happiest times of my life. Part of the problem, quite frankly, is that when you get married, the romance disappears and the children arrive and the love is transferred. It shouldn't be that way, but too often it is transferred to the children.
Hugh Hefner
I guess you could say, I'm just a typical Methodist kid at heart.
Hugh Hefner
People get their information in different ways now. And we are a little poorer for it, because the way you get information affects what you learn.
Hugh Hefner
I've nailed more women than I could count... at least I think they were women
Hugh Hefner
Life is too short to be living somebody else's dream.
Hugh Hefner
We're separated by our myths.
Hugh Hefner
The notion of the single man began in the 1950's. The idea of the bachelor as a separate life was new and obscure.
Hugh Hefner
I feel saddened when people who have major friendships or marriages wind up on the outs. Because I think you lose a little piece of yourself.
Hugh Hefner
Playboy, very clearly, from the outset, has fought against the historical repression of women. The notion that we were anywhere else simply defies the reality.
Hugh Hefner
Historically the Puritans left England to escape religious persecution, and they promptly turned around and started persecuting the people they didn't agree with - the scarlet letter A, and the stocks and the dunking board came from that. That puritanism is still there.
Hugh Hefner
I tried to make some difference, and I think I managed to do that.
