Your children need your presence more than your presents.

Every year on your birthday, you get a chance to start new.

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

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.

The way I see it, you should live everyday like its your birthday.

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

To me - old age is always ten years older than I am.

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

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

I remember when the candle shop burned down. Everyone stood around singing 'Happy Birthday.'
