"Hello babies. Welcome to earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you've got about a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies: God damn it, you've got to be kind." -
Hummm
Must be near perfect Greg. No one has comments.
I think I like the last one but type is off center and I'd like to see it in applications."No cape darling" -
I like the top row for type and the middle one for color. You might also consider just a rule above the words 'in a' and see if that kind of 'caps it off.'
What is this company?Comment

This is a book publisher, specializing in American Novels.
I got the idea for this name from this quote about artists, and authors in particular:
"...artists are useful to society because they are so sensitive. They are super-sensitive. They keel over like canaries in poison coal mines long before more robust types realize that there is any danger whatsoever.""Hello babies. Welcome to earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you've got about a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies: God damn it, you've got to be kind."Comment

Like this?"Hello babies. Welcome to earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you've got about a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies: God damn it, you've got to be kind."Comment

Check to see if that line will hold in small size uses. Or would you plan on an alternative version for use below a certain size?"No cape darling"Comment

Greg, I'd say if that line doesn't hold up at small sizes neither is the type below it. So you got two problems if a reduced version doesn't work.Comment

? It's all in the details I suppose."Hello babies. Welcome to earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded.

That seems to have been the case forever. I've heard that attributed to many different designers/architects. Here's one of the many efforts to chase down the origin. Anyway, you are in good company.
: DEVIL IS IN THE DETAILS - The "Random House Dictionary of Popular Proverbs and Sayings" by Gregory Y. Titelman (Random House, New York, 1996) shows this phrase as a variation of "God is in the details - Whatever one does should be done thoroughly; details are important. The saying is generally attributed to Gustave Flaubert (1821-80), who is often quoted as saying, 'Le bon Dieu est dans le detail' (God is in the details). Other attributions include Michelangelo, the architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, and the art historian Aby Warburg. 'The Devil is in the details' is a variant of the proverb, referring to a catch hidden in the details. 'Governing is in the details''and 'The truth, if it exists, is in the details' are recent variants. Listed as an anonymous saying in the sixteenth edition of Barlett's 'Familiar Quotations,' edited by Justin Kaplan."
(1) 'God is in the details.'
It seems generally accepted that this was something said by the German-born architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe (1886-1969) although almost certainly it was not invented by him. His obituary in The New York Times (1969) attributed it to him but the saying also appears to have been a favourite of the German art historian Aby Warburg (though E.M. Gombrich, his biographer, is not certain that it originated with him). In the form Le bon Dieu est dans le détail, it has also been attributed to Gustave Flaubert (1821-80). Subsequently, there has arisen the saying 'The devil is in the detail' which has been described as a maxim of the German pop musician, Blixa Bargeld. He probably did not invent it himself as it is mentioned in Lutz Röhrich's Lexikon der sprichwörtlichen Redensarten (1994) - as 'Der Teufel steckt im Detail'.
