Handmade presents are scary because they reveal that you have too much free time.

I hate birthdays.

If you can give your child only one gift, let it be enthusiasm.

Let us celebrate the occasion with wine and sweet words.

A diplomat is a man who always remembers a woman's birthday but never remembers her age.

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

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

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

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.

Success is like reaching an important birthday and finding you're exactly the same.
