Some, but much of my money is tied up in Playboy stock.

I don't think about financial success as the measurement of my success.

I had higher math SATs than in English - yet I became an English major in college.

I came to Playboy not expecting to stay. But after five years, I found myself really enjoying the business world, and I realized I had some skill.

I had an allowance, but I had to do things around the house to earn it. I think I always wanted my own money.

Even though money seems such an objective topic, it can also be the most intimate, and possibly harmful, part of a relationship.

At the very beginning, I said my life and Playboy are a Rorschach test. It's a culmination of the dreams and fantasies and prejudices you bring to the table

Not only did I enjoy the creative side of Playboy and enjoy being surrounded by people who are curious about life, but I also love the analytical and hard business side of it.

Half of my employees are women.

Being a CEO still means sitting across the table from big institutional investors and showing your leadership and having them believe in you.

I developed a great sense of self-confidence when I was very young.

We are born ready to love and be loved. It is our birthright.

Love is an engraved invitation to grief.

And it never even occurs to them their certainty that they are different is what makes them the same.

At my first Masters, I got the feeling, that if I didn't play well, I wouldn't go to heaven.

I was discovered on the Sony lot through an audition by Denzel Washington.

I was thinking one of the great things about fiction is we, as a race, only get to look out of our own eyes at the world. And fiction is a fantastic way of looking out through somebody else's eyes.

I love that the level of mediocrity rises.

Most learning is social, or what I call the cultural DNA. Everyone knows that word of mouth advertising is the best advertising. That's social learning.

We can be serene even in the midst of calamities and, by our serenity, make others more tranquil.

I'd never want to be Gene Simmons, an old man who puts on makeup to entertain kids, like a clown going to work.
