Praise a Student - The sky is the limit

Do you happen to have a list of motivating quotes? eg: "You shine like a star."
I need something cool and short (2-5 words)... 
�Good job � seems boring. :-D

I have "pink" slips that I give to my students. (Pink for love)
On it, a list of actions/behavior I expect to see in English class. When I see something great, I just check the behavior, sign it and give it to the student to take home. I teach elementary and it works well with both parents and students because they usually get bad comments from teachers in the agenda.
If you want a sample, let me know and I can email it to you. (pm me your email address) They are in French however because I want my parents to understand the reason why I �m sending that memo home but there is always a little praise in English on it.
