More quotes by Frank Sinatra
It is Billie Holiday who was, and still remains, the greatest single musical influence on me.
Frank Sinatra
It took me a long, long time to learn what I now know, and I don't want that to die with me.
Frank Sinatra
Never yawn in front of a lady.
Frank Sinatra
The best revenge is massive success.
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
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
The best is yet to come and won't that be fine.
Frank Sinatra
You may be a puzzle, but I like the way the parts fit.
Frank Sinatra
To me religion is a deeply personal thing in which man and God go it alone together, without the witch doctor in the middle. The witch doctor tries to convince us that we have to ask God for help, to spell out to him what we need, even to bribe him with prayer or cash on the line.
Frank Sinatra
Oh, I just wish someone would try to hurt you so I could kill them for you.
Frank Sinatra
The record shows, I took the blows . And did it my way.
Frank Sinatra
As you may know, I have many good friends in the press who, unfortunately, have thus far refused to identify themselves and go public.
Frank Sinatra
I would like to be remembered as a man who had a wonderful time living life, a man who had good friends, fine family - and I don't think I could ask for anything more than that, actually.
Frank Sinatra
Now there's a grown-up swinging town.
Frank Sinatra
And now the end is near, and so I face the final curtain.
Frank Sinatra
A man doesn't know what happiness is until he's married. By then it's too late.
Frank Sinatra
Fresh air makes me throw up. I can't handle it. I'd rather be around three Denobili cigars blowing in my face all night.
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
A friend is never an imposition.
Frank Sinatra
What is the point of singing wonderful lyrics if the audience can't understand what is being said or heard?
Frank Sinatra
