I respect artists so much, and I absolutely love music as the ultimate art.

I'm actually excited about turning 60. I feel on top of my game.

In private, I may wear a bikini, but at the public beach with my kids, I would change bathing suits because they do not want to be hanging out with some old broad in a bikini.

Because I'm an older mom, I have a responsibility to my kids as well as myself. I want to be there for them.

The only constant that I have in my life is that I start whatever I do with my Total Gym, because I believe it helps keep me from getting injured.

I've had injuries in my life from things beyond my control: runaway horses, helicopters that decide to crash on mountaintops, boating accidents - things that were out of my hands.

I haven't touched a piece of meat since I read a graphic description of Chicago's slaughterhouses when I was 12.

Every morning, I make myself a cappuccino with a drawing in the foam. I post them to Instagram with the hashtag #christiecappuccino.

When you feel great, you emanate a certain energy that translates as beautiful. I don't care if you have the standard beauty or not; it's that X-factor that comes through, and the basis of that is good health.

In the beginning of my career, I read an article about the reason that men always look five years younger than women is because they shave.

I photographed all kinds of sports - Formula 1, Formula Atlantic. And anybody who knows me knows that, from the day they invented video cameras, I used to lug them around when you had to carry the pack here and the big camera here, plus the diaper bag and a baby and the purse or whatever.

I remember my first 'Sports Illustrated' shoot was with the photographer Walter Iooss, and Julie Campbell was the editor, and we were at the president of Mexico's private house in Cancun - this was before anything else that's now in Cancun even existed. And they told me to get a tan, so I spent all morning in the sun, and I was burnt.

I remember really loving the CoverGirl ads when I was younger - there was something very cool about how they always put the girls in white. It looked so clean.

Some days I don't have time for a full workout, but I do have to dry my hair, right? So rather than just stand there blow-drying, I do several kinds of leg squats at the same time. I believe in multitasking.

I have an organic garden and love being able to say, 'I'm going to see what I can pick to throw in my salad.'

I came across an older picture of me that someone had posted on Facebook, and I totally remember squirming and feeling very fat while I was shooting it.

I was basically a surfer girl from California. I never looked like a model.

I just love America. I love living here.

I urge people to make your workout fun.

I crank up the music, and I dance around the house.

Whenever I wore a bathing suit, I kept a sarong around my hips that went halfway down my thighs. The tops of my thighs are like baby skin. Where the sarong ended, I can see sun damage: I've got dark spots and places where there is no melanin. The spots are not pretty, so I encourage everyone to protect their skin from the sun.

I like coffee in the morning and decaf green tea throughout the day... When I was younger and modeling, to kick-start a diet I would do a juice cleanse.

Most of the time, I've got my kids with me, so I'm not as prone to meeting people. And then, you never really know if someone is talking to you because you're a celebrity.

My work makes me a better mom. It gives me a little door to step out of my parenting and bring the excitement from my day back home.

We need to protect our wilderness areas and national parks. Everywhere you travel, you see blight, denuded mountains, logging. If people know what's going on, they'll become activists to safeguard those places.

I have sun damage that I want to repair, but I also want to keep myself from further damage.

When doing sports... on the water, it's crucial to stop aging by protecting your skin.

I start by moisturizing my face neck and chest with my own anti-aging SPF And IR Defense Sunblock called Recapture 360... Allow to sink in... Then I like Neutrogena's range of spray on sunblocks for body... then I use a foundation with SPF 30 or higher on my face to add yet another layer of protection to my face.

Look for rash guards that come treated, for further sun protection, and never forget your hat!

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

We don't fight about money... I hate to see people fight about money.

Try not to be either intimidated by or a captive of jargon. Even though it's language, and language is about communication, it often exists actually to obfuscate and to control power and not to communicate.

No, I never thought about my father's money as my money.

Any brand that attempts to live off a retro appeal is only going through a short second life cycle.

I've always believed that a goal in life is not to own a boat but have a friend with a boat.

I'm basically a gift-giver.

From the time that I can remember, I worked to make money - either baby-sitting, or one year wrapping gifts at a department store at Christmas, so I could have my own money.

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

Actually, my parents were separated by the time I was about 2 years old.

In college, my big money memory was saving up to buy a car with my boyfriend, whom I lived with.

I never have to this day, because my money is the money I earn.

Most people sell stock to pay taxes, but I didn't want to sell any stock.

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

I expected to go into journalism or law.

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.

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.

I've lectured at the Harvard Business School several times.

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

I have invested in the stock market since I was very young.

The very first stock I bought right out of college was Berkshire Hathaway.
