More quotes by Frank Sinatra
I'm supposed to have a Ph.D. on the subject of women. But the truth is I've flunked more often than not. I'm very fond of women I admire them. But, like all men, I don't understand them.
Frank Sinatra
What is the point of singing wonderful lyrics if the audience can't understand what is being said or heard?
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
Now there's a grown-up swinging town.
Frank Sinatra
If power doesn't mean that you have the opportunity to work with the people that you love , then you haven't really got any.

The best revenge is the massive success.
Frank Sinatra
Never yawn in front of a lady.
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

Frank Sinatra
Critics don't bother me because if I do badly, I know I'm bad before they even write it. And if I'm good, I know I'm good. I know best about myself, so a critic doesn't anger me.
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
For what is a man, what has he got. If not himself, then he has naught.
Frank Sinatra
There are moments when it's too quiet. Particularly late at night or early in the mornings. That's when you know there's something lacking in your life. You just know.
Frank Sinatra
Oh, I just wish someone would try to hurt you so I could kill them for you.
Frank Sinatra
That's life (that's life), I tell you I can't deny it I thought of quitting, baby, but my heart just ain't gonna buy it And if I didn't think it was worth one single try I'd jump right on a big bird and then I'd fly
Frank Sinatra
I think my greatest ambition in life is to pass on to others what I know.
Frank Sinatra
If I had done everything I'm credited with, I'd be speaking to you from a laboratory jar at Harvard.
Frank Sinatra
If you possess something but you can't give it away, then you don't possess it... it possesses you.
