This is my motivational quote typography assignment. I went with a quote from Thomas Jefferson as it is a quote that stood out to me. I changed the font of the "No Excuse" to put emphasis on that part of the quote. I then italicized the rest of the quote to give fading effect. Since the quote talks about losing the effect, the first part of the quote being bolder and more clear, then switching to a feint and lighter font helps reinforce the statement that the quote is giving. For the background I went with something that resembled fireworks to go for something that seemed a little more patriotic since the quote is from Thomas Jefferson.
