Happy 90th Birthday, Betty White!

She looks amazing at 90! I can only hope to be as witty and bright by the time I’m her age. I grew up on The Golden Girls and am proud to have had the privilege to watch those fabulous ladies in action.

Some great quotes to celebrate her today—

On one’s well-being: ”Keep the other person`s well-being in mind when you feel an attack of soul-purging truth coming on.”

On getting rest after a long day: “Oh, I don’t need sleep. I just went to my hotel and had a cold hot dog and vodka on the rocks.”

On staying active: ”I have a two story house and a bad memory! I’m up and down those stairs all the time: ‘What did I come up here for again?’”

On gay marriage: “I don’t care who anybody sleeps with. If a couple has been together all that time — and there are gay relationships that are more solid than some heterosexual ones — I think it’s fine if they want to get married. I don’t know how people can get so anti-something. Mind your own business, take care of your affairs, and don’t worry about other people so much.”

On living life to the fullest, we think: ”I’ve always liked older men. They’re just more attractive to me. Of course, at my age there aren’t that many left! I’ve enjoyed the opposite sex a lot. Always have. Always will.”

On Facebook, after a successful campaign on the social media network site landed White a gig as a host of Saturday Night Live: “I didn’t know what Facebook was, and now that I do know what it is, I have to say: It sounds like a huge waste of time.”

…And our favourite Betty White quote:

During the 2010 Super Bowl, White appeared as a football player in an ad for Snickers. After getting tackled in the mud, White responds, “That’s not what your girlfriend says!” when a player accuses her of “playing like Betty White” on field.
