A billion reasons to be happy

I would like to be remembered for my books, especially for my novels, through which I have tried to give morality, beauty and love to the world. I have written at the moment 723 books all together and have sold approximately one billion....I am very thrilled by what I have achieved in my life, and I hope I have helped a great number of people to find love. What really matters, however, is that I do bring happiness to people...
