I didn't want to repeat my parents life. I saw in their lives a routine and a lack of dreaming, a lack of the possibilities, a lack of passion. And I didn't want to live without passion.

Publishing a sophisticated men's magazine seemed to me the best possible way of fulfilling a dream I'd been nurturing ever since I was a teenager: to get laid a lot.

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.

If you let society and your peers define who you are, you're the less for it.
Hugh Hefner
Image
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
Image
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.

The major civilizing force in the world is not religion, it is sex.
Hugh Hefner

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

My life is an open book. With illustrations.
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
Image
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.

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