    Number 13 sounds like a James Dean quote, “Dream as if you’ll live forever, live as if you’ll die today.” Hmmm…wonder who copied who… :-P

    What a great list of quotable quotes. Like Jessica, I use that verse on my wedding too.

    And here’s another one for you.
    I have found the paradox that if I love until it hurts, then there is no hurt, but only more love.
    – Mother Teresa
