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

If you possess something but you can’t give it away, then you don’t possess it – it possesses
you.
– Frank Sinatra

The big lesson in life, baby, is never be scared of anyone or anything.
– Frank Sinatra

For years I’ve nursed a secret desire to spend the Fourth of July in a double hammock with a
swingin’ redheaded broad… but I could never find me a double hammock.
– Frank Sinatra

The best revenge is massive success.
– 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

Alcohol may be man’s worst enemy, but the bible says love your enemy.
– Frank Sinatra

You better get busy living, because dying’s a pain in the ass.
– Frank Sinatra

What I do with my life is of my own doing. I live it the best way I can.
– Frank Sinatra

I would like to be remembered as a man who had a wonderful time living his life, and who had
good friends, a fine family. I don’t think I could ask for anything more than that, actually.
– Frank Sinatra

A well-balanced girl is the one who has an empty head and a full sweater.
– Frank Sinatra

Whatever else has been said about me personally is unimportant. When I sing, I believe. I’m
honest.
– Frank Sinatra

I feel sorry for people who don’t drink. When they wake up in the morning, that’s as good as
they’re going to feel all day.
– Frank Sinatra

I think my greatest ambition in life is to pass on to others what I know.
– Frank Sinatra

I’m not unmindful of a man’s seeming need for faith; I’m for anything that gets you through
the night, be it prayer, tranquilizers, or a bottle of Jack Daniels. But to me religion is a deeply
personal thing in which man and God go it alone together, without the witch doctor in the
middle.
– Frank Sinatra

Fear is the enemy of logic.
– Frank Sinatra

You may be a puzzle, but I like the way the parts fit.
– Frank Sinatra

I believe in you and me. 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.
– Frank Sinatra

Oh, I just wish someone would try to hurt you so I could kill them for you!
– Frank Sinatra

When lip service to some mysterious deity permits bestiality on Wednesday and absolution on
Sunday, cash me out.
– Frank Sinatra

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.
– Frank Sinatra

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

If I did half of what they say, I wouldn’t be here – I’d be in a jar at Harvard.
– Frank Sinatra

I’m for decency. Period. I’m for anything and everything that bodes love and consideration for
my fellow man.
– Frank Sinatra

I like intelligent women. When you go out, it shouldn’t be a staring contest.
– Frank Sinatra

There are things about organized religion which I resent. Christ is revered as the Prince of
Peace, but more blood has been shed in His name than any other figure in history. You show
me one step forward in the name of religion and I’ll show you a hundred retrogressions.
Remember, they were men of God who destroyed the educational treasures at Alexandria,
who perpetrated the Inquisition in Spain, who burned the witches at Salem.
– Frank Sinatra

A man doesn’t know what happiness is until he’s married. By then it’s too late.
– Frank Sinatra

Las Vegas is the only place I know where money really talks. It says, “Goodbye.”
– Frank Sinatra

Cock your hat – angles are attitudes.
– Frank Sinatra

I detest bad manners. If people are polite, I am. They shouldn’t try to get away with not
being polite to me.
– Frank Sinatra

I lived in a plenty tough neighborhood. When somebody called me a “dirty little Guinea,” there
was only one thing to do – break his head. When I got older, I realized that you shouldn’t do
it that way. I realized that you’ve got to do it through education. Children are not to blame.
It is the parents. How can a child know whether his playmate is an Italian, a Jew or Irish,
unless the parents have discussed it in the privacy of their homes.
– Frank Sinatra

Never yawn in front of a lady.
– Frank Sinatra

Here’s to the confusion of our enemies!
– Frank Sinatra

Stay alive, stay active, and get as much practice as you can.
– Frank Sinatra

If I’d had as many women as I’ve been given credit for, I’d be in a jar in the Harvard Medical
School.
