[commenting about his job working in a bakery compared to his former job as a publisher of the infamous sex paper "Screw"] I've always loved food more than sex, so this is really my first love. I've gone from broads to bagels . . . Show less «

My life has turned to crap. To go from a being a millionaire and then living in a homeless shelter and being rejected by 98% of your friends is horrendous, but I'm a survivor. Show less «

[on what "boundaries" Screw magazine observed] I probably would not attack cripples, hunchbacks who have leprosy. Then again, they are so pathetic that I probably would. Show less «

[from an interview in 2001] To be angry is to be alive. I'm an angry Jew. I love it. Anger is better than love. I think it is more pure. There's so much to be angry about, because people are ripped off, the election went to the wrong person, the good guys usually lose, and society sucks. Show less «

[on how difficult it was to sell the first few issues of "Screw" magazine] I remember going to dealers along 8th Avenue . . . these old Jewish guys would yell at me and call me filthy and disgusting and they'd rip up the papers right in front of me . . . for eight weeks cigar-chomping fat guys with aprons told me I was vile and should be ashamed.

[in an interview in 1985, on whether he prefers New York, where "Screw" Magazine is headquartered, or California, where the company has business interests] I really love New York. I spend a lot of time in California, but I'm the one who is looking for dogshit, trying to find Puerto Ricans to run over while I blow my horn. No, New York City because it's so hostile. My first day back in New York yesterday a bus hit my limousine and the bus driver yelled at my driver saying we were speeding; we were doing 6 mph. New York is filled with such malcontents and disturbed people that it makes me feel like I'm at a Jerry Falwell revival meeting. So I love New York, I love it, because making it home at the end of the day is a major accomplishment. Show less «
