Birthday Greetings to Make Your Birthday Cards Special

When you receive a birthday card, is it the card or the birthday message inside that brings a smile to your face? Usually, it's the message of the sender that makes the card special. So how can you make your birthday cards to friends and loved ones memorable?

Store bought birthday cards are OK if you don't know the person that well, but they lack the personal touch. A birthday card with a personalized message shows that you care, and demonstrates personal effort rather than settling for an off-the-shelf product.

Birthday Quotes by William Shakespeare

To me, fair friend, you never can be old. For as you were when first your eye I eyed. Such seems your beauty still.

Have you not a moist eye, a dry hand, a yellow cheek, a white beard, a decreasing leg, an increasing belly? Is not your voice broken, your wind short, your chin double, your wit single, and every part about you blasted with antiquity?

With mirth and laughter let old wrinkles come.

Romance novels are birthday cake and life is often peanut butter and jelly. I think everyone should have lots of delicious romance novels lying around for those times when the peanut butter of life gets stuck to the roof of your mouth.
Anne Lamott
Some people won't go the extra mile, and then on their birthday, when no one makes a fuss, they feel neglected and bitter.

For him, in vain the envious seasons roll, who bears eternal summer in his soul.
