40th Birthday Sayings
You're not 40
You're 18, with 22 years experience
qSm
Be wise with speed;
A fool at forty is a fool indeed.
It's easier to get older than it is to get wiser.
At 40, you need to start taking it easier, its true
Just concentrate on getting older
Getting wiser may now be beyond you

but...
...she's happy to know you're 40% there!

May your 40th birthday bring you more adventures, more satisfaction and many more naps. What's that, you don't need 'em. Just you wait and see

The man who views the world at forty the same as he did at twenty has wasted twenty years of his life

qSm
Living right doesn't really make you live longer, it just seems like longer
qSm

Not the big Four-0

40th Birthday Sayings
On your decrepit, wizzened 40th birth anniversary
Try to feel reasonably young and fit
God knows that won't be easy
But this old? (Mate)(Buddy), even you don't deserve it.
Hard as it will be, try to feel youthful, today
Happy Birthday

Enjoy your 40th birthday
With as much gusto as you can musto
qSm
So OK, it's your special big Four-O birthday
But don't expect me to be obsequious and fawning
You, being you, can't possibly be a good example
So do try, at least, to serve as a warning
Happy Birthday, buddy

40th Birthday Sayings
Life begins at 40 - as well as fallen arches, rheumatism, sight and hearing loss
And telling the same story three or four times a night.
Happy Birthday and remember that life begins at 40
As well as failing memory, joints, hearing and sight
Oh, and Happy Birthday
You’re 40, aren’t you?

“A wise woman puts a grain of sugar into everything she says to a man,
and takes a grain of salt with everything he says”
At 40 you’re now a WOW (Wiser Older Woman)
Get used to your wiser ways
Happy Birthday oh wise one

qSm
At the age of 20, you didn't care what the world thought of you;
You were too busy having a ball
At 30, you did worry what it thought of you;
Now at 40, you’ll find it wasn't thinking of you at all
....but I am,
Happy happy birthday
My old..old friend

“It is a rare and difficult attainment to grow old gracefully and happily”
Some wise person once said
I say you’ve had 40 years out of 80
So that's good; you’re only half dead
Therefore party hearty
Happy 40th, good buddy

“As long as you’re learning, you’re not old
The excitement of learning separates youth from old age”.
So that’s good for you (Dave) since, clearly
You’re still at the infant school stage
Happy 40th
Jon Bratton 2012
qSm
“Old age is an excellent time for outrage...
to say or do at least one outrageous thing every week.”
You’re outrageous now, on a daily basis
What’ll it be like, when you reach your peak?
Do try to behave today
On this your 40th Birthday
Jon Bratton 2012
qSm
“At 20 years of age the will reigns;
at 30 the wit; at 40 the judgement and will”
Judge well today, on this your 40th birthday
For, from tomorrow, it’s all downhill
Jon Bratton 2012
qSm
“The best years of a woman's life -
Are the ten years between 39 and 40”
Face it, you have now reached the big Four-0
Time to be a little less naughty
It’s time for you to change
To be an altogether different kind
Cantankerous, Outspoken and Outrageous
Spring readily to mind
In whichever way
Enjoy your day

40th Birthday Sayings
qSm
“The "I just woke up" face of your 30's
Is the "all day long" face of your 40's” you need to know
But still, you’re just 40 today, so it’ll be tomorrow
Before your new old face starts to show
Happy 40th, and smile
before it becomes a grimace
Jon Bratton 2012
qSm
Be pleased to look forward,
And pleased to look behind,
Count today, your 40th, and each birthday
With a grateful mind.
I’ve got no tacky commercial gift
But I do have this priceless thought to give
Birthdays are good things to have
When you consider the alternative
Jon Bratton 2012
qSm
Today you’re 40
No doubt, for lost youth you hunger
But remember these words of wisdom
“No wise man ever wished to be younger.”
So put up with your old joints
While embracing your new wisdom
Happy 40th

It seems like yesterday you were a babe in my arms
With all your wonderful lovely charms
Now you're grown up and 40 today
There is only one thing to say
Happy 40th my wonderful daughter
From your mum, a thing I wouldn't alter

40th Birthday Sayings
40 They Say Is Where Life Begins
The 20s And 30s Have Wained
It Wont Be Long Before You Shout
"I Wish I Was 18 Again"
The Backside Starts To Sag And Droop
The Boobs Not As Firm As Before
The Thighs Expand, The Waist Doth Spread
And You Cant Touch Your Toes Any More
But Take Heart And Look Forward To NHS Specs
False Teeth And Rickety Bones
The Migraines, Arthritis, Cystitis And Cramp
And Death Of Your Homogenous Zones
The Onset Of Menopause Moods And Hot Flushes
Memory Loss, Incontinence, Decay
But Don’t Dwell Too Long On The Problems Of Life
"Bugger It All And Have a Great Day" !!!

As it’s your 40th birthday
This, we'd like to say
May you be bathed in goodness, happiness and sunshineness
On this, your special day.

40th Birthday Sayings
Wishing you a second set of 40 years
And with luck they'll be as good as the first
But hopefully, you'll have less appetite for food, sex and risk
And, for your liver, less of a thirst
Happy Birthday

qSm
Throw all caution to the wind, today, on your 40th
No need to have wisdom and sage
But tomorrow, as you start your 5th decade
Do try to act more your age
Jon Bratton © 2012
qSm
I'll be standing by with a fire extinquisher, today
As you light 40...yes FORTY...candles
