My dad was always there, even though he wasn't living in our house. He was always on the phone, always just a car ride away. Whenever he had a new recording, we would be the first to get the acetate. And it would say, in Dad's handwriting, 'Play it loud.'

Then all of a sudden, Quentin Tarantino comes along and puts a song from 40 years ago in one of his films and they've suddenly discovered you. That was a real gift that Quentin gave me.

There are a lot of people who would laugh at the idea of me being a good singer.

His last 2 shows in the U.S. were in Chicago and St. Louis. I don't know what made me go on the trip with him, but I'm so very glad I did. They were two of the finest concerts I've ever seen.

I used to write three- and four-part harmonies for my YWCA club in high school. We used to win all the song contests. But people would say, 'Look who her father is. He probably did the whole thing.'

After 50, the rock 'n' roll road is a little absurd. It's very difficult to play these little places. You're out there on a rickety old bus with no place to shower.

I have never been accepted. I'll never make the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. They're never going to let me in.

I was a star in Italy, Austrailia, Germany and Japan before the American stations ever paid attention at all.

I think most people are aware of the garbage in the tabloids and don't give them a lot of credence.

I was at a party three weeks prior to the murders at Roman Polanski and Sharon Tate's house.

I am the daughter of the Chairman of the Board and thus, was raised with great music.

Nancy Sinatra

I wasn't allowed to grow as an artist. My albums were nicer to look at than to listen to.

Nancy Sinatra

Dad really had little to do with the songs, except to perform them.

After things started to happen here, my choice of material was extremely limited. It was a weird situation.

Nancy Sinatra

Frank's audience doesn't care if a girl singer, a comic or an organ grinder with a monkey opens the show. They are there to see HIM.

Nancy Sinatra

I didn't just want to be Frank's daughter who sang Boots. I take my music very seriously and studied very hard. It's not a joke to me.

Nancy Sinatra

I think I've finally proven something to people who were cynical about me. Because they were cruel.

Nancy Sinatra

I was singing about six notes higher than I had to, in a range that kept me up in a bubblegum sound.

Nancy Sinatra

I was successful with mediocre material because of a good recording voice that people really liked at that time.
