BIRTHDAY QUOTES (3)
Inflation
is when you pay fifteen dollars for the ten-dollar haircut you used to get for
five dollars when you had hair.
~Sam
Ewing
Youth
is a wonderful thing. What a crime to
waste it on children.
~George
Bernard Shaw
In
childhood, we yearn to be grown-ups. In
old age, we yearn to be kids. It just
seems that all would be wonderful if we didn't have to celebrate our birthdays
in chronological order.
~Robert
Brault
The
first sign of maturity is the discovery that the volume knob also turns to the
left.
~Jerry
M. Wright
When
I was younger, I could remember anything, whether it had happened or not; but
my faculties are decaying now and soon I shall be so I cannot remember any but
the things that never happened. It is
sad to go to pieces like this but we all have to do it.
~Mark
Twain
You
are only young once, but you can stay immature indefinitely.
~Ogden
Nash
They
say that age is all in your mind. The
trick is keeping it from creeping down into your body.
~Author
Unknown
We
advance in years somewhat in the manner of an invading army in a barren land;
the age that we have reached, as the saying goes, we but hold with an outpost,
and still keep open communications with the extreme rear and first beginnings
of the march.
~Robert
Louis Stevenson, "Virginibus Puerisque II," Virginibus Puerisque,
1881
Middle
age is the time when a man is always thinking that in a week or two he will
feel as good as ever.
~Don
Marquis
Just
remember, once you're over the hill you begin to pick up speed.
~Charles
Schulz
I'm
most comfortable in my birthday suit.
~Amanda
Seyfried
You
know, maybe I was just born in the wrong time, but I love all things romantic.
Puffy understands that. For my last birthday, he covered my hotel room floor
with rose petals and had flowers and candles all over the room.
~Jennifer
Lopez
Some
people won't go the extra mile, and then on their birthday, when no one makes a
fuss, they feel neglected and bitter.
~Anne
Lamott
I'm
a summer baby, so I usually have my birthday as a good summer memory.
~Sloane
Crosley
Mum
loves me being famous! She is so excited and proud, as she had me so young and
couldn't support me, so I am living her dream, it's sweeter for both of us.
It's her 40th birthday soon and I'm going to buy her 40 presents.
~Adele
Every
day, every birthday candle I blow out, every penny I throw over my shoulder in
a wishing well, every time my daughter says, 'Let's make a wish on a star,'
there's one thing I wish for: wisdom.
~Rene
Russo
I
just had my 30th birthday and we went turkey shooting. It's what I wanted to
do, so we went.
~Kelly
Clarkson
The
worst part about celebrating another birthday is the shock that you're only as
well as you are.
~Anne
Lamott
I
gave a funny speech at my wife's birthday party, and I'm thinking, 'Hey, I've
still got it.'
~Larry
David
I
trained to be a priest - started to. I went to seminary school when I was 11. I
wanted to be a priest, but when they told me I could never have sex, not even
on my birthday, I changed my mind.
~Johnny
Vegas
My
best kiss was on stage. Kelly Rowland from Destiny's Child gave me a really
nice soft kiss on my lips during a performance on my birthday. It was amazing.
~Chris
Brown
I
tried to bake a cake for my mother's birthday - it took me four hours. It was
terrible, and I cried for three days.
~Rachael
Ray
I
left school on my 15th birthday.
~David
Bailey
My
happiest memory of childhood was my first birthday in reform school. This
teacher took an interest in me. In fact, he gave me the first birthday presents
I ever got: a box of Cracker Jacks and a can of ABC shoe polish.
~Flip
Wilson
I
like to go to anybody else's birthday, and if I'm invited I'm a good guest. But
I never celebrate my birthdays. I really don't care.
~Mikhail
Baryshnikov
When
I was a kid, for my birthday every year, my mother made me pasta bechamel,
which is rigatoni with a white cream sauce.
~Giada
De Laurentiis
My
ace in the hole as a human being used to be my capacity for remembering
birthdays. I worked at it. Whenever I made a new friend, I made a point of
finding out his or her birthday early on, and I would record it in my Filofax
calendar.
~Susan
Orlean
I
want a chainsaw very badly, because I think cutting down a tree would be
unbelievably satisfying. I have asked for a chainsaw for my birthday, but I
think I'll probably be given jewelry instead.
~Susan
Orlean
I
had been offered a Hollywood contract before my 18th birthday. It gave me the
spark I needed.
~Gene
Tierney
Anybody
can have a birthday. It requires nothing. Murderers have birthdays. It's the
opposite of anything that I believe in. And I don't like at work where you stop
everything to sing 'Happy Birthday' to someone. I feel like that's for
children.
~Mindy
Kaling
The
day before my 16th birthday I got my guitar.
~Stevie
Nicks
If
we celebrate Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday at a time of presidential
inaugurals, this is thanks to Ronald Reagan who created the holiday, and not to
the Democratic Congress of the Carter years, which rejected it.
~David
Horowitz
The
Queen of Crafts herself, Martha Stewart, and I have the same birthday. I prefer
to think it's the glue-gun wielding, perfect-tart-producing Martha and not the
copper pan-throwing, jail-going Martha. But I suppose if I am going to share a
calendar square with some of Martha, I have to share it with all of Martha.
~Sloane
Crosley
Since
graduation, I have measured time in 4-by-5-inch pieces of paper, four days on
the left and three on the right. Every social engagement, interview, reading,
flight, doctor's appointment, birthday and dry-cleaning reminder has been
handwritten between metal loops.
~Sloane
Crosley
John
Candy knew he was going to die. He told me on his 40th birthday. He said, well,
Maureen, I'm on borrowed time.
~Maureen
O'Hara
The
first guitar I ever got was for my 13th birthday.
~Rick
Springfield
It
is ironic that the one thing that all religions recognize as separating us from
our creator, our very self-consciousness, is also the one thing that divides us
from our fellow creatures. It was a bitter birthday present from evolution.
~Annie
Dillard
I
used to be good with kids, but as I get older, I'm grumpy and terrible with
them. As for doing a gig at a 6-year old's birthday party, you couldn't pay me
enough.
~Johnny
Vegas
Citizens,
thank you for all your birthday wishes. I am 88 years old today and still lucky
to live in the greatest city in the world.
~Ed
Koch
All
my favorite stars, my family and my friends are here. I'm having the happiest
birthday that an 18-year-old girl could ever have.
~Brandy
Norwood
