More quotes by Frank Sinatra
If you don't know the guy on the other side of the world, love him anyway because he's just like you. He has the same dreams, the same hopes and fears. It's one world, pal. We're all neighbors.
Frank Sinatra
The best revenge is the massive success.
Frank Sinatra
Oh, I just wish someone would try to hurt you so I could kill them for you.
Frank Sinatra
[Answering the phone] Hello, this is a recording, you've dialed the right number, now hang up and don't do it again.
Frank Sinatra
Now there's a grown-up swinging town.
Frank Sinatra
It is Billie Holiday who was, and still remains, the greatest single musical influence on me.
Frank Sinatra
The record shows, I took the blows . And did it my way.
Frank Sinatra
With few exceptions, every major pop singer in the US during her generation has been touched in some way by her genius. It is Billie Holiday who was, and still remains, the greatest single musical influence on me. Lady Day is unquestionably the most important influence on American popular singing in the last twenty years.
Frank Sinatra
If you possess something but you can't give it away, then you don't possess it... it possesses you.
Frank Sinatra
Rock 'n roll smells phony and false. It is sung, played and written for the most part by cretinous goons and by means of its almost imbecilic reiteration and sly, lewd, in plain fact, dirty lyrics ... manages to be the martial music of every side-burned delinquent on the face of the earth.
Frank Sinatra
What's [the Beatles'] I Am the Walrus all about?
Frank Sinatra
You only go around once, but if you play your cards right, once is enough.
Frank Sinatra
I've always had a theory that whenever guys and gals start swinging, they begin to lose interest in conquering the world. They just want a comfortable pad and stereo and wheels, and their thoughts turn to the good things of life - not to war. They loosen up, they live and they're more apt to let live.
Frank Sinatra
The cigarettes you light one after another won’t help you forget her.
Frank Sinatra
I don't know what other singers feel when they articulate lyrics, but being an 18-karat manic-depressive and having lived a life of violent emotional contradictions, I have an overacute capacity for sadness as well as elation.
Frank Sinatra
You are the promised kiss of springtime that makes the lonely winter seem long. You are the breathless hush of evening that trembles on the brink of a lovely song.
Frank Sinatra
Never yawn in front of a lady.
Frank Sinatra
And now the end is near, and so I face the final curtain.
Frank Sinatra
The reading of the song is vital. The written word is first always . . . first. Not belittling the music, but it really is a backdrop. To convey the meaning of a song you need to look at the lyric and understand it.
Frank Sinatra
I think my greatest ambition in life is to pass on to others what I know.
Frank Sinatra
