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

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.

Let us celebrate the occasion with wine and sweet words.

God gave us the gift of life it is up to us to give ourselves the gift of living well.

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

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

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

Our birthdays are feathers in the broad wing of time.

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

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.'
