More quotes by Hugh Hefner
I was a very idealistic, very romantic kid in a very typically Midwestern Methodist repressed home. There was no show of affection of any kind, and I escaped to dreams and fantasies produced, by and large, by the music and the movies of the '30s.
Hugh Hefner
One of the things I've tried to do with my life is redefine the boundaries that I think are very limiting. I'm not suggesting that everybody should have three girlfriends, or necessarily have girlfriends living with them. I think there are many, many options to living your life.
Hugh Hefner
I would like to think that I will be remembered as someone who had some positive impact on the sociosexual values of his time. And I think I'm secure and happy in that.
Hugh Hefner
Television, cable, the Internet, that's knocked the boundaries down.
Hugh Hefner
The business end of business has never interested me.
Hugh Hefner
I remain very much connected to my childhood... I have never been too jaded or too sophisticated.
Hugh Hefner
Follow your own particular dreams. We are handed a life by peers, parents and society, you can do that or follow your own dreams. Life is short, be a dreamer but be a practical person.
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
It is the beauty of women, and the fact that they are the focus, that they are sex objects in a positive sense, is the reason we have civilization.
Hugh Hefner
America is just as much to blame as a lot of our enemies.
Hugh Hefner
The religious heritage sort of suggests implicitly and explicitly that you pay your dues and you get your reward later on, that's a little inconsistent with the notion of personal, happiness. I am a strong believer in a set of values that are rooted in the notion of happiness and personal fulfillment.
Hugh Hefner
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.
Hugh Hefner
I am in very good health. I've never felt better.
Hugh Hefner
I have no plans to retire. It's the perfect combination of work and play that keeps you young. If I quit work it would be the beginning of the end for me.
Hugh Hefner
The interesting thing is how one guy, through living out his own fantasies, is living out the fantasies of so many other people.
Hugh Hefner
When I was young I had a security blanket and a pet dog. The dog got sick and died and the blanket had to be burned, so I guess I was trying to recreate the image of security in the bunny. It was a Citizen Kane/Rosebud thing.
Hugh Hefner
I've had death threats, but I've never been fearful for my life. Although I have traveled with security since the '60s.
Hugh Hefner
You really don't create an authoritarian society unless you control the personal choices including the sexual choices of the people.
Hugh Hefner
Could I be in a better place and happier than I am today? I don't think so.
Hugh Hefner
Life and values do run in cycles.
Hugh Hefner
