So, I'm trying to make a new banner for my LJ, but I'm totally blanking on text! I like to have some sort of fun, random quote, and maybe I'm just tired, but I can't think of anything to put on these...and I can't decide which one to use either. HELP!

Sarcasm/Puns/Quotes always a plus! Just think of something that works with my personality. Does not have to be Felicia or Guild related.




dance like no one is watching


(erm, seeing this one right now, I can tell its a bit too red/pink. I'll fix that, just think of good text...)

oooooooh you have inspired me! I could do one of those Mae West quotes - you know, the "when I'm good, I'm good, but when I'm bad I'm better...or something....

I will have to google around!

Or even...ummm... Dorothy Parker: (shamelessly copy/pasted)

Dorothy Parker was a writer and critic for such magazines as Vogue, Vanity Fair, and the New Yorker. She also wrote a number of screenplays, poetry, and short fiction. A founder of the Algonquin Round Table, Dorothy Parker was known for her pointed verbal wit and satire, often focused on the life of middle class young women, newly "liberated" from Victorian restrictions.

Selected Dorothy Parker Quotations

• I'm never going to be famous. I don't do anything, not one single thing. I used to bite my nails, but I don't even do that any more.

• I don't care what is written about me so long as it isn't true.

• Wit has truth in it; wisecracking is simply calisthenics with words.

• I know that there are things that never have been funny, and never will be. And I know that ridicule may be a shield, but it is not a weapon.

• You can't teach an old dogma new tricks.

• Women and elephants never forget.

• I might repeat to myself slowly and soothingly, a list of quotations beautiful from minds profound -- if I can remember any of the damn things.

• Men seldom make passes at girls who wear glasses.

• Four be the things I'd have been better without:
Love, curiosity, freckles and doubt.

• A girl's best friend is her mutter.

• I require only three things of a man. He must be handsome, ruthless and stupid.

• Take care of luxuries and the necessities will take care of themselves.

• Salary is no object; I want only enough to keep body and soul apart.

• Money cannot buy health, but I'd settle for a diamond-studded wheelchair.

• The two most beautiful words in the English language are 'cheque enclosed.'

• If you want to know what God thinks of money, just look at the people he gave it to.

• The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity.

• The best way to keep children home is to make the home atmosphere pleasant -- and let the air out of the tires.

• Now, look, baby, 'Union' is spelled with 5 letters. It is not a four-letter word.

• It serves me right for keeping all my eggs in one bastard.

• All I need is room enough to lay a hat and a few friends.

• Heterosexuality is not normal, it's just common.

• Scratch a lover, and find a foe.

• Men don't like nobility in woman. Not any men. I suppose it is because the men like to have the copyrights on nobility -- if there is going to be anything like that in a relationship.

• That woman speaks eighteen languages, and can't say No in any of them.

• People are more fun than anybody.

• I like to have a martini,
Two at the very most.
After three I'm under the table,
after four I'm under my host.

• I'd rather have a bottle in front of me, than a frontal lobotomy.

• You can lead a horticulture, but you can't make her think.

• Ducking for apples -- change one letter and it's the story of my life.

• The Monte Carlo casino refused to admit me until I was properly dressed so I went and found my stockings, and then came back and lost my shirt.

• Brevity is the soul of lingerie.

• This is not a novel to be tossed aside lightly. It should be thrown with great force.

• She runs the gamut of emotions from A to B.

• The only ism Hollywood believes in is plagiarism.

• If all the young ladies who attended the Yale prom were laid end to end, no one would be the least surprised.

• As only New Yorkers know, if you can get through the twilight, you'll live through the night.

• Misfortune, and recited misfortune especially, may be prolonged to that point where it ceases to excite pity and arouses only irritation.

• Constant use had not worn ragged the fabric of their friendship.

• Summer makes me drowsy.
Autumn makes me sing.
Winter's pretty lousy,
But I hate Spring.

I like the last one too! But I fail at text, generally.. Looks pretty just as it is with no text though! You could always leave it blank, then add when inspiration strikes! :D
