George Lois Commandment #2

I'm working on the second in the series entitled "The Ten Commandments of George Lois" for my outfit TypographyShop. George felt that the first and last thoughts needed to be together on the same line, but this solution breaks them.

Creating a pleasing shape with these long quotations is very difficult. I wouldn't be as concerned if this were a magazine layout or heading on a web page, but when it's going on a t-shirt for sale to designers and typophiles the pressure's on.
