Some of the most moving things we had written in our wedding cards and guest book weren't actual verses, just people telling us how they felt, what they wished for our future, etc. Just say what you mean, and I bet your brother will love it.

I like this, from Kahil Gibran, though may be a little wordy for a card (unless it's a big card)? I read it at my brother's wedding:
Love one another but make not a bond of love:
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
Fill each other's cup but drink not from one cup.
Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf.
Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone,
Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.
Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping.
For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts.
And stand together, yet not too near together:
For the pillars of the temple stand apart,
And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow.
This and more from which you might take a snippet, at:

AnnaThe quickest way for a parent to get a child's attention is to sit down and look comfortable. :eek:0 -
You could always try https://www.twopeasinabucket.com - it's an American crafting website (mainly for scrapbookers) - if you go to the resources section and then onto Pea Soup, there are all sorts of verses and quotes and titles (you'd understand about the titles if you were a scrapbooker).
