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

The notion that Playboy exploited women, because we showed them in beautiful photographs, sexually oriented, strikes me as rather bizarre.

I do think the reality is, there is a general recognition of what I've accomplished.

My life has been devoted to trying to bring a little more understanding to human sexuality - not just in society, but also inside myself. The struggle has been internal as well as external. One of the reasons that I have such tremendous satisfaction at this point in my life is because I know I've made a difference. I've made a difference in a way that really matters to me. I see a lot of terrible things going on in the world, but there are some good things going on too, and I feel I've been a part of that. I really do feel I have been on the side of the angels.

The notion of the single man began in the 1950's. The idea of the bachelor as a separate life was new and obscure.

I'm never going to grow up. Staying young is what it is all about for me.

It's very difficult to censor anything anymore.
