"The major civilizing force in the world is not religion, it is sex." ― Hugh Hefner Topic(s): Religion More From Hugh Hefner "I always say now that I’m in my blonde years. Because since the end of my marriage, all of my girlfriends have been blonde." "I was very influenced by the musicals and romantic comedies of the 1930s. I admired Gene Harlow and such, which probably explains why, since the end of my marriage, I’ve dated nothing but a succession of blondes." "If you let society and your peers define who you are, you’re the less for it." More In Religion "I think it’s perfectly just to refuse service to anyone based on behavior, but not based on race or religion."― Dean Koontz "When men take pleasure in feeling their minds elevated with strong drink, and so indulge their appetite as to disorder their understandings, neglect their duty as members of a family or civil society, and cast off all regard to religion, their case is much to be pitied."― John Woolman "And religion causes most of the problems, war, and economics of course, and study your history or you’re going to repeat it; and if you’re burning a Harry Potter book you need some serious counseling, you don’t get it, you’re missing the whole point."― Michael Berryman
