Danielle Steel

“I'm a terribly irresponsible eater - I love soft-boiled eggs and chocolate. I never met a chocolate I could not eat.”

“I am endlessly busy, bringing up five young kids, and trying to keep up with the three older ones. I still spend most of my life driving car pools.”

“My relationships were never equitable. My husbands were always older than me, and they made the rules, they ran the show, and I followed them.”

“When people look at me outside, they think, 'She's so lucky,' but no one's exempt from tragedy.”

“If you see the magic in a fairy tale, you can face the future.”

“I completed my first novel when I was 19 years old.”
