Growing old is mandatory, but growing up is optional.
Age is merely the number of years the world has been enjoying you.
Youth is the gift of nature, but age is a work of art.

The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate.
The secret of staying young is to live honestly, eat slowly, and lie about your age.

Today you are you! That is truer than true! There is no one alive who is you-er than you!
Wisdom doesn’t necessarily come with age. Sometimes age just shows up all by itself.

Birthdays are nature's way of telling us to eat more cake.
There are two great days in a person's life - the day we are born and the day we discover why.
Youth has no age.
Life seems to fade our memory, so on this birthday, I will forget yours if you forget mine!
Count your age by friends, not years. Count your life by smiles, not tears.
Don't just count your years, make your years count.
Age is a case of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter.
The more candles, the bigger the wish.
Middle age is when you're sitting at home on a Saturday night and the telephone rings, and you hope it isn't for you.
Age is not how old you are, but how many years of fun you've had.
Every year on your birthday, you get a chance to start new.
You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.
Birthdays are a reward for having shown up 365 days in a row. It's like getting a badge for attendance.
