I'm having trouble finding good readings for the ceremony. We're looking for something from literature/novel. Nothing religious or too over the top. Any suggestions?

Re: Ceremony Readings
This is what we are using!
1) True Love True love is a sacred flame that burns eternally, And none can dim its special glow Or change its destiny. True love speaks in tender tones and hears with gentle ear, True love gives with open heart and true love conquers fear. True love makes no harsh demands It neither rules nor binds, And true love holds with gentle hands The hearts that it entwines.
2) Love is patient and kind, it is never envious or boastful, arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way, it is not irritable or restful. It does not rejoice in wrong doing, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, hopes all things, has faith in all things, Endures all things... Love never ends.
Love quote from when Harry met Sally When 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.

Re: Ceremony Readings
here is the one we've chosen so far, we are still looking for a second, so if anyone has any other ideas, keep em coming
Love by Roy Croft: I love you Not only for what you are, But for what I am When I am with you. I love you, Not only for what You have made of yourself, But for whatYou are making of me. I love you For the part of me That you bring out; I love youFor putting your hand Into my heaped-up heart And passing over All the foolish, weak thingsThat you can't help Dimly seeing there, And for drawing out Into the light All the beautiful belongings That no one else had looked Quite far enough to find I love you because you Are helping me to makeOf the lumber of my life Not a tavern But a temple. Out of the works Of my every day Not a reproach But a song. I love you Because you have done More than any creed Could have done To make me good. And more than any fate Could have done To make me happy. You have done it Without a touch, Without a word, Without a sign. You have done it By being yourself.
