Non-clicky poll: favorite quotation?

I'm creating a photo guestbook with our e-pics and including famous 'love" quotations.  I thought it might make for a good poll!  Do you have a favorite quote, love-related or otherwise?

My favorite "love" quote:
"You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams."  - Dr. Seuss

My favorite "otherwise" quote:
'When you reach the end of your rope, tie a knot in it and hang on." - Thomas Jefferson

    This one really applies to my line of work but my coworkers say it to each other often and I'm not sure who said it where it came from.
    "Your failure to plan doe not constitute an emergency on my part!"

    Some of my favorites (you'll have to look up who said them, sorry!):

    I love you not only for what you are, but for what I am when I am with you.

    You have to walk carefully in the beginning of love; the running across fields into your lover’s arms can only come later when you’re sure they won’t laugh if you trip.

    Love doesn’t make the world go ‘round; love is what makes the ride worthwhile.

    Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other but in looking outward together in the same direction.

    For you see, each day I love you more. Today more than yesterday and less than tomorrow.

    Love is like a friendship caught on fire: in the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.

    “Later that day I got to thinking about relationships. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you can find someone to love the you you love, well, that's just fabulous.”

    This is one of my favorites and am even trying to incorporate into our programs:

    I dreamed of a wedding of elaborate elegance,
    A church filled with family and friends.
    I asked him what kind of a wedding he wished for,
    He said one that would make me his wife.

    Favorite wedding quote


    “This day I will marry my friend, the one I laugh with, live for, dream with, love”


    It may just be a shortened version of this:


    "This day I married my best friend
    ...the one I laugh with as we share life's wondrous zest,
    as we find new enjoyments and experience all that's best.
    ...the one I live for because the world seems brighter
    as our happy times are better and our burdens feel much lighter.
    ...the one I love with every fiber of my soul.
    We used to feel vaguely incomplete, now together we are whole"

    My favorite wedding/love quote (I even used it on our wedding website):

    "Lucky is the man who is the 1st love of a woman, but luckier is the woman who is the last love of a man."


    Other than that I have a gajillion quotes that I love ranging from music to movies to inspirational quotes.

    This is one of my favorites from the movie "Juno"

    The best thing you could do is find somebody who loves you for exactly what you are. Good mood/bad mood, ugly/pretty, handsome, what have you. The right person’s still gonna think the sun shines out your ass. That’s the kind of person that’s worth sticking with.
    ~Juno

    I was also thinking of using this quote on the front cover of my wedding programs.  Still unsure though.
