I quit high school on my birthday. It was my senior year and I didn't see the point. This was 1962 and I was ready to make music.

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.

I binge when I'm happy. When everything is going really well every day is like I'm at a birthday party.

The main prank that we play with props is for people's birthdays. The special effects people will put a little explosive in the cake so it blows up in their face - that's always fun to play on a guest star or one of the trainees or someone who's new.

My biggest hero Gregory Peck was my birthday present on April 14 1973. I just sat and stared at him.

I hate birthdays.

Most of us can remember a time when a birthday - especially if it was one's own - brightened the world as if a second sun has risen.

New Year's Day is every man's birthday.

There is still no cure for the common birthday.

Our birthdays are feathers in the broad wing of time.
