FRANK SINATRA

Dare to wear the foolish clown face.

Hell hath no fury like a hustler with a literary agent.

I'm gonna live till I die.

Rock 'n Roll: The most brutal, ugly, desperate, vicious form of expression it has been my misfortune to hear.

The best revenge is massive success.

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.

Oh, I just wish someone would try to hurt you so I could kill them for you.

Cock your hat - angles are attitudes.

I am a thing of beauty.

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.

Don't get even, get mad.

I'm for whatever gets you through the night.

Whatever else has been said about me personally is unimportant. When I sing, I believe. I'm honest.

People often remark that I'm pretty lucky. Luck is only important in so far as getting the chance to sell yourself at the right moment. After that, you've got to have talent and know how to use it.

The martial music of every sideburned delinquent on the face of the earth.

You treat a lady like a dame, and a dame like a lady.

You gotta love livin', baby, 'cause dyin' is a pain in the ass.

Alcohol may be man's worst enemy, but the bible says love your enemy.

I'm not one of those complicated, mixed-up cats. I'm not looking for the secret to life... I just go on from day to day, taking what comes.

Throughout my career, if I have done anything, I have paid attention to every note and every word I sing - if I respect the song. If I cannot project this to a listener, I fail.

I like intelligent women. When you go out, it shouldn't be a staring contest.

Basically, I'm for anything that gets you through the night - be it prayer, tranquilizers or a bottle of Jack Daniels.

May you live to be 100 and may the last voice you hear be mine.

I'm like Albert Schweitzer and Bertrand Russell and Albert Einstein in that I have a respect for life - in any form. I believe in nature, in the birds, the sea, the sky, in everything I can see or that there is real evidence for. If these things are what you mean by God, then I believe in God.

What I do with my life is of my own doing. I live it the best way I can. I've been criticized on many, many occasions, because of - acquaintances, and what have you.
