My first wife was a brunette, and Barbi Benton, my major romantic relationship of the early 1970s, was a brunette. But since the end of my marriage, all of my girlfriends have been blonds.

Picasso had his pink period and his blue period. I am in my blonde period right now.

I tried to make some difference, and I think I managed to do that.

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.

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

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.

Life is too short to be living somebody else's dream.

Without question, love in its various permutations is what we need more of in this world. The idea that the concept of marriage will be sullied by same-sex marriage is ridiculous. Heterosexuals haven't been doing that well at it on their own.

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.

We're separated by our myths.
Hugh Hefner
Image
I think the Playboy philosophy is very, very connected to the American dream.
Hugh Hefner
Image
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
Image
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
Image
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.

Being attacked by right-wing Christians did not bother me. Being attacked by liberal feminists did.

America is just as much to blame as a lot of our enemies.
Hugh Hefner
Image
Since time immemorial, youth has set the universal standard of physical beauty, and the reason is simply that a shapely firm young face and body are more attractive sexually and aesthetically than bulges, sags and wrinkles.
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.

Creating my own world in a comic or selling my first penny newspaper aged nine was a way of gaining recognition and acceptance by my peers.
