 Frank Sinatra Quotation"I'm trying to figure out, Chairman of what Board? People come up to me and seriously say 'Well, what are you Chairman of?' And I can't answer them." "I'm for anything that gets you through the night, be it prayer, tranquilizers or a bottle of Jack Daniels." "A friend is never an imposition." His last words: "I'm losing it". [talking about Burt Reynolds]: "He is the one the ladies like to dance with and their husbands like to drink with. He is the larger-than-life actor of our times. He is gifted, talented, naughty and nice." "A fella came up to me the other day with a nice story. He was in a bar somewhere and it was the quiet time of the night. Everybody's staring down at the sauce and one of my saloon songs comes on the jukebox. 'One for My Baby,' or something like that. After a while, a drunk at the end of the bar looks up and says, jerking his thumb toward the jukebox, 'I wonder who he listens to?'" When Dean Martin walked out on The Together Again Tour "You can't put a gun to his head. He just didn't want to do it." "Nothing anybody's said or written about me ever bothers me, except when it does." "I'm next. I ain't scared, either. Everybody I ever knew is already over there." After the deaths of Sammy Davis Jr., Ava Gardner, Jilly Rizzo, and Dean Martin. On Elvis Presley during the 1950s: "His kind of music is deplorable, a rancid smelling aphrodisiac...It fosters almost totally negative and destructive reactions in young people." "There have been many accolades uttered about his talent and performances through the years all of which I agree to whole-heartedly, I shall miss him dearly as a friend." - On Elvis Presley's death in 1977. On Ava Gardner "I love her, and God damn me for it." "You better get busy living, because dying's a pain in the ass."

They're smashed as of now because we say so, because we say they are to be smashed. We're busting up the joint, we're tearing out all the wires. We're busting it up so good all the queen's horses and all the queen's men will never put old Raymond back together again. You don't work any more! That's an order.
