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

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

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

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

A gift consists not in what is done or given, but in the intention of the giver or doer.

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

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.

You know you're getting old when you get that one candle on the cake. It's like, 'See if you can blow this out.'
