More quotes by Hugh Hefner

Image
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
Image
I remain very much connected to my childhood... I have never been too jaded or too sophisticated.
Hugh Hefner
Image
I was raised in a truly typical Midwestern home with a lot of repression. My life, and the creation of Playboy, were a response to that repression.
Hugh Hefner
Image
If it was wrong to persecute heterosexuals in a homosexual society, then the reverse was wrong, too.
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.
Hugh Hefner
Image
I think being connected to younger people helps to keep you young and gives you a young attitude.
Hugh Hefner
Image
I'm actually a very moral guy.
Hugh Hefner
Image
Beauty is everywhere - on the campus, in the office, living next door... Nice girls like sex too - it's a natural part of life. Don't be ashamed of it.
Hugh Hefner

I am not primarily an entrepreneurial businessman. I'm primarily a playboy philosopher.
Hugh Hefner
Image
I think that the major message of my life and what I hope to be remembered for is someone who managed to change the social sexual values of his time absolutely.
Hugh Hefner
Image
I guess you could say, I'm just a typical Methodist kid at heart.
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
Image
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.

You stay in touch with the boy who dreamed impossible dreams.

I am in very good health. I've never felt better.
Hugh Hefner
Image
Life is too short to be living somebody else's dream.
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.
Hugh Hefner
Image
America is just as much to blame as a lot of our enemies.
Hugh Hefner
Image
My life is an open book. With illustrations.
Hugh Hefner

The Puritans thought they could simply repress man's sexual nature, and they reaped a whirlwind as a result. Their code of sexual morality - which became America's - was nothing more than a set of rules laid down by people who believed that all pleasure was suspect.
