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

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

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

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.'

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.

It is lovely, when I forget all birthdays, including my own, to find that somebody remembers me.

For my birthday I got a humidifier and a de-humidifier... I put them in the same room and let them fight it out.

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

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

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