This is an example of good typography. The message is easy to read, and he used the speech bubble background instead of using quotations. He kept it left align, so we have a nice clean edge, but the back is a little jumbled, that isn't a problem, some people would clean it up though letter spacing (newspapers especially to keep nice clean columns). He used Helvetica font, a very common type face (font), but for good reason. Instead of searching for a unique (which often leads to legibility issues) he use a bold, common font that is modern, to suit his desire. The statement is modern, and his type face is too. The only things I would have suggested to the artist is to increase the letter spacings, and line spacings, but it looks good

Look at the lower case t, that's the first thing I noticed.
I'm gonna actually write some stuff on the subject of type when I get back from work.
