Expect a Miracle: Quotations to Live and Love by

When Danielle Steel was a young girl, her grandmother gave her a beautiful antique book with blank pages inside. She wasn't quite sure what to do with it. Draw? Write? Soon, she began to discover quotes she liked--words from other people that she wanted to keep and hold on to. She started to write them down on those smooth ivory pages.

That habit of gathering sayings has stayed with Danielle throughout the years. And now, after a lifetime of collecting, she shares the quotations that have meant the most to her--lines from books and magazines, pieces of poetry, short passages from the Bible, and quotes gathered from the world around her. These are the words that bring her wisdom and humor, inspiration and comfort, and, above all, joy. May Expect a Miracle bring the same to you, too.
