"If your Birthday is on Christmas day and you're not Jesus, you should start telling people your birthday is on June 9 or something. Just read up on the traits of a Gemini.

'We wish you a merry Christmas - and happy birthday, Terry - we wish you a merry Christmas - happy birthday, Terry - we wish you a merry Christmas and a happy New Ye - Birthday, Terry!"

Ellen DeGeneres
"It's even more awkward when we're face to face with people. It used to be exciting to make plans with friends because you could sit and catch up and talk about what's been going on in your lives. Now when you see someone there's nothing left to say. You've already seen the pictures from their trip to Rio on Facebook. You've read their tweets about the latest diet they're on. And they already texted you about the pregnancy scare. So you end up just sitting and staring at each other until you both start texting other people."

Ellen DeGeneres
"The word 'yoga' literally means 'uniting', because when you're doing it you are uniting your mind and your body. You can tell this almost immediately because your mind will be thinking, 'Ouch, that hurts,' and your body will say, 'I know.' And your mind will think, 'You have to get out of this position.' And your body will say, 'I agree with you, but I can't right now. I think I'm stuck."
