Help! ISO font help - want to make quick card tonight using Jul 23, 2015 1:22:25 GMT

a very long quote by the Dalai Lama. I haven't made a card or scrapped in 5+ years but really want to make a card to give to someone tomorrow. Using one of my photos on the front and want to print this and border it and mount it on the inside. I lost all of my fonts, card examples on an old computer.... would appreciate your suggestions for how to quickly make this text look nice.

Would you emphasize certain words by italicizing? Bold? Different font or by making htem larger?
Would you center the lines or left justify?
If you're reading and care to reply, thanks very much in advance!

A new bartender asked a seasoned bartender what to do when a customer asks for drink she doesn't know how to make. The seasoned bartender said "make it pink, make it pretty, and charge them twenty bucks."

I have no real answer to your question, I would guess you should do what pleases you.

I meant to behave, but there were so many options.

Without looking at exactly what the quote is, the ideas that come to mind for me are: left justified text, most of the text in an interesting but readable font, and the words you want to emphasize highlighted in an eclectic mix of different fonts - bold, italics, all caps, or maybe even different colors.
