Let's make this birthday one to remember.

87 years old (Born on June 16, 1937)

Happy birthday, Erich Segal! Another year older, yet your timeless story still makes millions reach for tissues. Honestly—"Love Story" singlehandedly boosted worldwide sales of Kleenex and waterproof eyeliner. While they say love means never having to say you're sorry, birthdays mean we must apologize—for reminding you how long it's been since your first bestseller!

Let's not forget your psychedelic adventure aboard the "Yellow Submarine," giving the Beatles dialogue playful enough to stay afloat in our memories forever. Your stories continue proving that all we need is love—and occasionally animated submarines filled with singing legends.

Cheers on another fabulous chapter ahead!
