Our birthdays are feathers in the broad wing of time.
There is still no cure for the common birthday.
How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are?
Growing old is mandatory; growing up is optional.

A diplomat is a man who always remembers a woman's birthday but never remembers her age.

Time and tide wait for no man, but time always stands still for a woman of 30.
