Famous quotes containing the words birthday and/or celebration:
“Although Im trying very hard
To sound unlike a birthday card,
Thats all this is: so you may find it
Full of all that lies behind it
Admiration; friendship too;
And hope that in the future you
Reap ever richer revenue.”
—Philip Larkin (19221986)
“Sweet weight,
in celebration of the woman I am
and of the soul of the woman I am
and of the central creature and its delight
I sing for you. I dare to live.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
