I'm not materialistic. I believe in presents from the heart, like a drawing that a child does.

I think, at a child's birth, if a mother could ask a fairy godmother to endow it with the most useful gift, that gift should be curiosity.

You know you're getting old when the candles cost more than the cake.

The greatest gift that you can give to others is the gift of unconditional love and acceptance.

Our birthdays are feathers in the broad wing of time.

When someone asks if you'd like cake or pie, why not say you want cake and pie?

Your children need your presence more than your presents.

My father gave me the greatest gift anyone could give another person, he believed in me.

All the world is birthday cake, so take a piece, but not too much.

The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate.
