Cindy Margolis Quotations

I think in vitro is a miracle and it has given me my precious little baby boy.

The world of modeling can be hard; just as cruel as it is glamorous.

When you're modeling you're actually acting for the camera and the photographer. It's more fun, too because there are no lines to memorize.

I am spoiled, it's true. I don't even know how to use that thing in the kitchen with the burners.

I really did put up all my wedding pictures on my website. And I swear to you, my wedding pictures got downloaded just as much as my bikini pictures.

A good photographer can make you look incredible, even when you're not feeling very sexy.

Having inner beauty is something you develop on your own, and I like to think I have that.

I made my career off posing in swimsuits and doing all the swimsuit issues and posters.

I've lived my life in a way that I feel would be an example to young women and I've always given my best in everything I've tried.

My favorite meal is turkey and mashed potatoes. I love Thanksgiving, it's just my favorite. I can have Thanksgiving all year round.

You have to believe in yourself, that you're gonna succeed.

You have to surround yourself with really good people and have a very thick skin.

Here in America we so are for family values, yet insurance companies do not cover all fertility procedures.

Makeup artists are always giving me their stuff. My favorite thing is free stuff. I'll take anything.

I married the man of my dreams in 1998.

There's no such thing as an overnight success. It took me a long to get there.

Infertility is this huge emotional roller coaster. If you want in your heart more than anything to have a baby, it's the hardest thing you will ever go through physically, emotionally, and financially.

Sometimes I see myself in the mirror, and it's 'Oh, God!' But the minute you stick out your butt a little bit and suck it in, you go from a 6 to a 10.

I've done over 125 posters and I have worked with some of the best photographers in the world.They made me America's Number one Pin Up.

Being a mother is the most amazing thing that has ever happened to me in my life.

Being on the cover of a magazine with my son is the best thing ever. It took me 18 years to get my first cover, he gets one at 8 months.

So many celebrity websites you go to are so sterile that you know they just pay somebody to do it and there's not even an ounce of them in it.

We were diagnosed with 'unexplained infertility,' which sounds good in one respect, but on the other hand you almost want something wrong so there is a problem so you can fix it.

I don't care how many books you've read, Britney, or what you think you know, but you know nothing, girl, until you take that baby home and you're like, 'Why did they even let me take this child?' ... I'm just happy to be out wearing something that doesn't have throw-up all over it.

It doesn't matter how you get your baby, even if it's via FedEx as long as you get to hold your precious baby in your arms. You can have your miracle child.

When I'm asked what my girls will think when they grow up, I'll tell them that they have to keep their clothes on till they're 40. But when they're 40, they can make their own decisions.

Every couple years when Mr. [Hugh] Hefner would call, I would very graciously decline, because my mom would kill me, and I thought it was more mysterious keeping my clothes on.

Our point is that America is so family oriented.

You should see me without makeup.

My pictures are airbrushed.

I think that's the great thing, ya' know, that women can do anything that they want now.

Infertility costs an average of about $16-20,000 per procedure, and you don't always get pregnant the first time. I had to go through it seven times. And adoption and surrogacy are not covered through insurance companies.

There's so many celebrities now on the Internet and I feel that I was such a pioneer. Now everybody, your dog can have a website.

Gotham Games called me, and I could not be more thrilled. I've been waiting to be in a video game forever, so when they called there was no hesitation.

I call my children "My Hundred Thousand Dollar Babies Before They Were Even Born"!

To me, bigger is better.

I know I play into that image out there, but I try to say it is a fantasy. I look at my own pictures and wish I could look like that. There are probably five people in this whole entire world who actually look like that.

Nine million Americans a year, that we know of, struggle with infertility.

It just kills me when these girls look at magazines and wish they could look like that. I try to tell them, 'Nobody looks like that. Everything's airbrushed.'

I have been blessed in my career and I was able to afford the extra procedures and everything to have my children. Does that make me a better mother than someone who cannot afford it? No, of course not.

I have my loyal cyber-buddies out there, and I really do answer my e-mail. I'm in my pajamas at 3 in the morning with my zit medicine on. I owe everything to them.

We have so many kids in America to be adopted, but it's expensive. All these families that want children aren't able to because of the financial aspect, and that, to me, is just the most disgusting thing ever.

I hope every woman out there who wants to be a mother and is suffering with infertility, will explore all the options and know that if you choose the science route, it is okay.

I am the celebrity spokesperson for Resolve, the national infertility association, and my three precious children were born through infertility procedures. I struggled for many years trying to have children. My beautiful son was born through in vitro fertilization. I had my beautiful twins via a surrogate. So I wanted to give back.

Back in '96, I was on 'The Price Is Right' pointing at refrigerators, and 'Extra,' the TV show, came down. They were the first entertainment entity that put people up on the Internet, so they put my picture up, and America Online called the next day and said I got a zillion or whatever downloads. I didn't know what a download was!

You check the pregnancy test every month, and when it comes up negative it can start to wear on you

I gained 80 pounds for my pregnancy so this is like my coming out party.

I felt proud of myself. I worked out really hard, and the reason I wanted to do it the most is because I am posing for a purpose: a portion of the proceeds from each issue sold is going to go to my charity.

My bed is actually two king beds put together.

I have good feet but they always get cut off in photo shoots...

The world of modelling can be hard; just as cruel as it is glamorous.

My mom would have killed me before, but I'm an adult woman now, and I'm ready to show the world that you can have it all at 40 - be fabulous, 40, and pose for Playboy.

Yeah, baby! I didn't get to keep the pink baby doll outfit, but I wish I did because people are always telling me I should wear it.

There's always someone following your next step.

The more I learn and read about the 10th Muse i realize what a great fan base and cult following she has. I'm going to try to live up to the fantastic image of the 10th Muse!

When I got the call from [Hugh] Hefner... I thought, "Wow - at 40, they still want me?" And I thought it's almost an inspiration - like a "you go, girl" moment. I feel empowered that you can be married and and have three children and still be sexy and confident and look great.

I'm a Valley Girl. You can't get me out of the Valley, I'm still here.

That is very important to me, to make fertility mainstream so everyone understands it. If you want to have your miracle child, there are options: adoption, surrogacy, fertility procedures. It is also sadly very expensive, and not all insurance companies cover it.

I was really stuck in the whole Farah Fawcett hairdo long after it was past being in fashion.

Ever since my husband started playing home games with his buddies, I've been hooked on poker, especially No Limit Texas Hold 'Em.

It is PG-13, but who knows what is going to happen. It is live TV. There could be an R moment in there.

I honestly don't believe a respected book like the Guinness Book of World Records has a category for pornography. If it does, however, I am SURE that having no nudity on my Web site would automatically disqualify me from competing with girls or Web sites of this nature.
