Creative Quotations from Frank Sinatra ( ) born Dec 12 US singer, actor; Ol' Blue Eyes was the one of the biggest entertainment attractions in the 20th century; won Oscar, for From Here to Eternity.

I have many good friends in the press who, unfortunately, have thus far refused to identify themselves and go public.

Cock your hat — angles are attitudes.

It was my idea to make my voice work in the same way as a trombone or violin not sounding like them, but playing the voice like those instrumentalists.

If I had done everything I'm credited with, I'd be speaking to you from a laboratory jar at Harvard.

I've lived a life that's full, I traveled each and ev'ry highway, And more, much more than this, I did it my way.
