Help! Need a love quote!

FI and I are including a quote on love/marriage in our invitation. I have found a few I like but would love some ideas!

Here's the list so far to choose from:
Chains do not hold a marriage together.  It is threads, hundreds of tiny threads which sew people together through the years.  ~Simone Signoret
If two stand shoulder to shoulder against the gods,
Happy together, the gods themselves are helpless
Against them while they stand so.
~Maxwell Anderson

There is no more lovely, friendly and charming relationship, communion or company than a good marriage.  ~Martin Luther

Between a man and his wife nothing ought to rule but love.  ~William Penn

Come, let's be a comfortable couple and take care of each other!  How glad we shall be, that we have somebody we are fond of always, to talk to and sit with.  ~Charles Dickens

[W]hen you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.  ~Nora Ephron, When Harry Met Sally

When the one man loves the one woman and the one woman loves the one man, the very angels desert heaven and come and sit in that house and sing for joy.  ~The Brahma Sutras

Any other ideas from movies, music, or other places? Thanks!

    Just looked at these today, here is what I found that I like

    A life without love is like a year without summer. -Swedish Proverb

    Never above you. Never below you. Always beside you.-Walter Winchell

    There is nothing nobler or more admirable than when two people who see eye to eye keep house as man and wife, confounding their enemies and delighting their friends. -Homer, The Odyssey

    Happy are they who enjoy an uninterrupted union, and whose love, unbroken by complaints, shall not dissolve until the last day. -Horace

    Love indeed is light from heaven, a spark of that immortal fire. -Lord Byron

    Love is friendship set on fire. -Jeremy Taylor

    I've always loved the Harry/Sally quote!  It's so cute (and true.)  I guess it depends what kind of mood you want to set for the wedding?

    One of my new favs....


    LOVE: We think about it, Sing about it, Dream about it &Loose sleep worrying about it. When we don't know we have it, we search for it. When we discover it, we don't know what to do with it. When we have it, we fear losing it. It is the constant source of pleasure and pain. But we don't know which it will be from one m...oment to the next. It is a short word, easy to spell, difficult to define & IMPOSSIBLE to live without.

    On ours I'm pretty sure we are doing "This day I marry my best friend, the one I laugh with, live for, dream with, and love"

    But we are shortening it up and having it say "Today I marry my best friend, the one I laugh with, live for, love"

    I don't know if that's wrong to change it but I've seen it both ways on invites.
