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

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

How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are?

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.

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

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

Our birthdays are feathers in the broad wing of time.

We'll take the cake with the red cherry on top.

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.'
